Abstract

Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in children under the age of 15 years, constitutes 5% to 8% of all solid tumors in the pediatric population. The most common RMS is the embryonal subtype, followed by the alveolar subtype. The alveolar subtype typically affects older children and young adults and frequently involves the extremities and perineal sites with peak at 10-25 years. Alveolar RMS of labia majora is extremely rare.
