description Sarcomas are rare and malignant mesenchymal neoplasms that mainly affect children and adolescents. Rhabdomyosarcoma, a subtype originating from skeletal muscle, is an uncommon condition in adults. It affects sites of unusual location, presents fast growth, and is challenging to treat.

The histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, and treatment was conducted in association with Oncology.
