Overview
Rhabdomyoma is a benign tumor of striated muscle. Rhabdomyomas are rare and can be classified into cardiac type and extracardiac type.The most common primary benign pediatric tumor of the heart is cardiac rhabdomyoma which can be seen mainly in fetal life and children, second most common primary benign cardiac tumor in children is fibroma. Most tumors regress spontaneously, prognosis depends on the location of tumor and size. Cardiac rhabdomyoma is strongly associated with tuberous sclerosis.
Classification
Rhabdomyoma may be classified into the following subtypes: [1][2][3][4][5][6]
Neoplastic
Neoplastic rhabdomyomas may be further classified into the following types:
Hamartomataous
Hamartamatous rhabdomyomas may be further classified into the following types:
- Cardiac rhabdomyoma
- Rhabdomyomatous mesenchymal hamartomas of the skin(RMH) which is a rare congenital malformation involving the dermis and subcutaneous tissue, it can present as skin tag or even trigeminal neuralgia case reported. [7]
