Abstract
Botyroid rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common malignant mesencymal tumor of the vagina in children and infants. Botyroid sarcoma is usually found in the vagina during infancy and early childhood, in the cervix during reproductive years, and in the corpus uteri during postmenapausal years. Treatment is combination of surgery with adjuvants chemotherapy and radiotherapy. We report a case of two-month-old girl presented with a history of vaginal bleeding and a mass protruding from vagina. Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed an approximately 6 cm mass in rectovaginal septum. Excisional biopsy from the vagina confirmed the diagnosis of botyroid rhabdomyosarcoma. After biopsy the patient received multiple cycles of chemotherapy. The patient is disease-free on remission at this time.
