Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcoma of the cervix is among the rare histological types of cervical cancers, which are usually seen in young girls or women in the general active period. The usual circumstances of diagnosis are dominated by recurrent metrorrhagia. At the initial stage, the lesions may be asymptomatic or take on the appearance of a benign polyp. In the case reported here, the clinical symptomatology was recurrent metrorrhagia with a cervical implanted polyp occurring 28 months after resection of a benign polyp. RMS is one of the malignant tumors of mesenchymal origin. Typically, it is a malignant tumor proliferation of cells with morphological and/or phenotypic striated muscle differentiation. The characteristic cells of this tumor are rhabdomyoblasts rhabdomyosarcomas are classified into three histological subtypes: embryonal, alveolar, and anaplastic. Within embryonal RMS, it is possible to distinguish between botryoid, leiomyomatous and anaplastic forms. Botryoid and leiomyomatous forms are classically described as having a more favorable prognosis. Treatment is based on a multidisciplinary approach that includes indications for conservative surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and brachytherapy.
