Vaginal botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma in an infant: A case report and review of the literature

Botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy that primarily affects the female genital tract in children. It arises from embryonal rhabdomyoblasts. The vagina is the most common site, but it can also occur, although rarely, in the cervix or uterine fundus. We report the case of a 2-year-old girl who presented with a rapidly growing mass in the vulvar region. A pelvic MRI revealed a grape-like mass occupying the vaginal lumen, suggestive of botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma. Biopsy of the mass confirmed the diagnosis.
