A case of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) arising from an axillary space is described. RMS is one of the most common soft-tissue neoplasms in children, but adult embryonal RMS is rare. The patient was a 55-year-old man with a tumor of the left axillary area. RMS arising from an axillary area is also uncommon. The histological diagnosis was embryonal RMS. He received irradiation combined with chemotherapy (VAC: VCR, act-D, CPA) for the primary and metastatic lesions, obtained complete remission, and has remained disease-free for over four years as of this report. |
