Primary peritoneal embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in a 6-year-old girl with rapid post-surgical peritoneal recurrence possibly due to surgical tumor seeding: a case report and review of the literature

Key Points

This report aims to discuss the recurrence of primary peritoneal rhabdomyosarcoma after surgery and the potential impact of surgical handling.
Case report of a 6-year-old girl with peritoneal rhabdomyosarcoma
Review of existing literature on surgical techniques and outcomes
Assessment of recurrence patterns post-surgery
Documented rapid recurrence of rhabdomyosarcoma after surgical intervention
Emphasized that surgical techniques may contribute to tumor seeding
Highlighted the need for multimodal therapy post-surgery for better outcomes

Abstract

The aggressive nature of primary peritoneal rhabdomyosarcoma and the possible influence of surgical handling on recurrence are both highlighted in this case. To achieve an optimal outcome, early multimodal therapy and preventive surgical techniques are essential.
