Vulvar tumors are uncommon, among them vulvar sarcomas represent
only 1-2% of all vulvar malignancies. We aimed to present an
agressive vulvar alveolar type rhabdomyosarcoma that was treated
with palliative radiotherapy at our clinic. A 20-years-old patient presented
with a mass on genitalia. Radical hemivulvectomy and inguinal
lymphadenectomy was performed and postoperative histopathology
was reported as alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Postoperative chemotherapy
and radiotherapy was administered, one month after
completion of treatment she died. A case of vulvar alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma
which is uncommon and agressive is presented and the
treatment and prognosis is discussed with the literature review.
