Imaging diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma in children
Abstract：Objective To explore the imaging features of rhabdomyosarcoma in children .Methods Clinical data and imaging findings of 19 children with rhabdomyosarcoma were retrospectively analyzed .Results Two cases were located in head and face,2 in abdominal cavity,11 in pelvic cavity,2 in extremities, and 2 near to vertebral col-umn.Seventeen cases were embryoid rhabdomyosarcoma , and 2 cases were alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma .The imaging findings included similar density or signal intensity to soft tissue , obvious enhancement , and lytic lesion of adjacent bone.Conclusion The imaging features of rhabdomyosarcoma are the same as tumours of soft tissue and unspecific . We can make a correct diagnosis by combining the age of children with clinical features .
