Adult and pediatric orbital rhabdomyosarcoma: comparison of characteristics and outcomes
To our knowledge, this study is the largest report of adult orbital RMS from a single institution, highlights key comparisons in features and outcomes between adult and pediatric orbital RMS, and provides an updated literature review. While pediatric and adult orbital RMS clinical presentations are similar, adult disease more often demonstrates aggressive features, including alveolar subtype, local structure involvement, and lower disease-free survival.
