    Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma of the hand: a very rare case of soft tissue sarcoma
    (Duzce University Medical School, 2014) Sarman, Hakan; Tosun, Bilgehan; Baran, Tuncay
    Soft tissue sarcomas of extremities are very rare and generally have a bad prognosis. Rhabdomyosarcomas are soft tissue sarcomas that, while extremely rare in adults, are one of the most common neoplasms in children and adolescents. Extremities are unusual sites of origin for rhabdomyosarcomas and usually associated with unfavorable outcome. Complete surgical removal of the tumor represents a major factor in terms of survival. Our study presents the case of primary alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma of the left hand in a 22 years old male who was treated by fifth ray amputation after an incomplete tumor excision. The patient is still tumor-free after 4 years following operation.
