RESUMEN
AIM: To study the local treatment of uterine cervical rhabdomyosarcoma in which fertility-sparing surgery is done. METHODS: We report an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the uterine cervix which presented as a cervical polyp in a 22-year-old nulliparous woman. RESULTS: The tumor was composed of rhabdomyoblasts of varying differentiation dispersed within a loose, myxoid stroma, and formed a distinct cambium layer beneath the epithelium. The patient was successfully treated with fertility-sparing surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSION: The treatment modality should be done according to the patients individually. Treatment has recently inclined toward conservative therapy. Patients with favorable prognostic factors such as localized disease, single polyp and embryonal histologic subtype and without deep invasion can be treated with minimal invasive surgery.
