Overview
Surgical resection of the rhabdomyosarcoma is often difficult or impossible because the tumor is usually embedded deep within the tissue, leaving it difficult to reach.
Surgery
- Primary resection of tumor is one of the main prognostic factors in rhabdomyosarcoma.[1][2]
- Based on tumor's location, surgical resection may be different.
- Findings of surgical resection is essential for risk stratification.
- Surgical tumor resection must contain complete tumor removal with performing safe margin resection.
- If surgical excision could not be performed, 12 weeks chemotherapy is recommended.
- Lymph nodes need to be assessed for further evaluation.
- In extremities of rhabdomyosarcoma, axillary and femoral lymph nodes should be assessed.
