ABSTRACT
The rhabdomyosarcoma(RMS), a leading malignant soft tissue tumor in the pediatric population, occurs most commonly in the craniocervical region. RMS has involved the temporal bone approximately 7% in the literature. Petrous bone invasion was very rare and the overall outcome was always fatal, in spite of the efficacy of multimodality therapy, until recent years. The authors report a case of primary RMS in the temporal bone invading petrous bone and the result of multimodality treatment.
Key Words: Rhabdomyosarcoma(RMS); Petrous bone; Multimodality therapy
