Overview
Rhabdomyosarcoma may be classified according to the "International classification of rhabdomyosarcoma" into five subtypes: Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma, spindle cell rhabdomyosarcoma, and anaplastic rhabdomyosarcoma.
Classification
Histologic classification of rhabdomyosarcoma
- The international classification of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) was created by the Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study group (IRSG) therapeutic trials (IRS-I to IV).[1][2]
- The four main subgroups are:
- Embryonal RMS
- Botryoid and spindle cell (leiomyomatous) RMS
- Sclerosing and spindle cell RMS with MyoD1 mutation
- Alveolar RMS
This system attempts to combine elements of the previous systems and correlate these with prognosis based on tumor type. Rhabdomyosarcomas are classified into five subtypes:
- Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma
- Usually affects young adults
- Early metastasis is common
- Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma
- Usually affects children <10 years of age
- Typically locally invasive
- Botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma
- Spindle cell rhabdomyosarcoma
- Anaplastic rhabdomyosarcoma
Several additional subtypes of rhabdomyosarcoma exist that do not fit into the International Classification scheme:
- Pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma: Usually occurs in adults rather than children.
- Sclerosing rhabdomyosarcoma: It is a rare rhabdomyosarcoma subtype.
