Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcomas, malignant neoplasms exhibiting skeletal muscle differentiation, are the most common childhood sarcomas. Embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas of the genitourinary tract also occur in children but are rare in adults. We report a case of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma arising in the bladder of a 29-year-old man who presented with dysuria and microscopic hematuria. A partial cystectomy was performed, and he received chemotherapy with vincristine and actinomycin.
Key Words: Rhabdomyosarcoma; Sarcoma; Bladder
