          Abstract

          El rabdomiosarcoma es un tumor complejo y de gran malignidad que se origina en las células de la mesénquima embrionaria con capacidad para diferenciarse en células musculares esqueléticas. Este es el tumor maligno de tejido blando más frecuente. Representa aproximadamente 3,5 % de los casos de cáncer en niños de 0 a 14 años de edad. Se presenta una paciente adolescente y virgen en la que se diagnostica histológicamente rabdomiosarcoma botrioide de la vagina. La presentación clínica del rabdomiosarcoma embrionario variedad botrioide es, en general, una masa que protruye por la uretra o el introito vaginal, o por la presencia de flujo fétido o sangrado vaginal en niñas menores de 2 años. En estas lesiones el apoyo diagnóstico con inmunohistoquímica es de vital importancia. El pronóstico de esta enfermedad está determinado por variables como el tamaño tumoral, órgano comprometido, edad del paciente, resultado quirúrgico (R0/R1) y presencia de metástasis. La evaluación médica multidisciplinaria precoz y oportuna permitirá siempre establecer un diagnóstico y tratamiento adecuados.

          Translated abstract

          Rhabdomyosarcoma is a complex and highly malignant tumor that originates in the cells of the embryonic mesenchyme with the ability to differentiate into skeletal muscle cells. This is the most common malignant soft tissue tumor. It represents approximately 3.5% of cancer cases in children from zero to 14 years of age. A case of a virgin adolescent patient is presented. A botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma of the vagina was diagnosed histologically. The clinical presentation of embryonic botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma variety is, in general, a mass that protrudes through the urethra or vaginal introitus, or the presence of fetid flow or vaginal bleeding in girls under 2 years. In these lesions, diagnostic support with immunohistochemistry is of vital importance. The prognosis of this disease is determined by variables such as tumor size, compromised organ, age of the patient, surgical result (R0 / R1) and presence of metastasis. Early and timely multidisciplinary medical evaluation will always allow an adequate diagnosis and treatment to be established.

          Local control and outcome in children with localized vaginal rhabdomyosarcoma: a report from the Soft Tissue Sarcoma committee of the Children's Oncology Group.

          The local control approach for girls with non-resected vaginal rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) enrolled onto Intergroup RMS Study Group (IRSG)/Children's Oncology Group (COG) studies has differed from that used at other primary sites by delaying or eliminating radiotherapy (RT) based on response achieved with chemotherapy and delayed primary resection.
