ABSTRACT

Rhabdomyosarcoma is a complex tumor of great malignity that originates in the embryonary mesenchymal cells with the capacity of differentiating into skeletal muscle cells. This is the most frequent malignant tumor in the soft tissue. It roughly represents 3.5 % of cancer in children aged 0 to 14 years. Generally, the clinical presentation of botryoid-type embryonary rhabdomyosarcoma is a mass that protrudes from the urethra or the vaginal introit or the presence of fetid fluid or vaginal bleeding in girls under 2 years-old. This is the case of a 16 years-old virgin female patient diagnosed with botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma of the vagina. The diagnostic support with immunohistochemistry is of vital importance in addition to the early and timely multidisciplinary medical assessment for setting adequate diagnosis and treatment that improve the prognosis of persons suffering this disease.
