  • Title: Laryngeal rhabdomyosarcoma.
    Author: Canalis RF, Platz CE, Cohn AM.
    Journal: Arch Otolaryngol; 1976 Feb; 102(2):104-7. PubMed ID: 1247416.
    Abstract:
    Laryngeal rhabdomyosarcomas are very rare, extremely malignant tumors. Approximately half of the reported cases have occurred in children. Diagnosis may be difficult, and adequate biopsy material is crucial in the identification of these lesions. Unil recently, rhabdomyosarcomas carried a dismal prognosis; however, combined treatment with surgery, irradiation, and triple chemotherapy appears to have improved the outlook. This should probably be the treatment for laryngeal rhabdomyosarcomas, and was successfully used in the case reported herein.
