Abstract

The efficiency of radiation therapy and chemotherapy has had a major impact on the surgical procedures recommended for rhabdomyosarcoma. With multidisciplinary regimens, survival rates have improved significantly compared to those in the past. However, radiation therapy in conjunction with chemotherapy may have deleterious side effects particularly in children. In this report, a case who presented with vaginal occlusion, and a secondary malignant tumor long after successful treatment of a pelvic rhabdomyosarcoma at 3 years of age is described. The importance ofiong term follow-up in soft tissue sarcomas of childhood is emphasized by this postradiation sarcoma which has developed twelve years after initial treat¬ment.

Özet

Radyoterapi ve kemoterapinin tedavideki etkinliği rabdomyosarkoma için önerilen cerrahi işlemlerde önemli değişikliklere neden olmuştur. Multidisipliner yaklaşımlar sonucunda yaşam oranları eskiye oranla belirgin artış göstermiştir. Ancak kemoterapi ile birlikte olan radyasyonun özellikle çocuklarda önemli yan etkileri görülebilir. Bu çalışmada, üç yaşında iken pelvik rabdomyosarkom tanısı alarak başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edilen bir hastada, uzun süre sonra ortaya çıkan vajinal oklüzyon ve sekonder maliğn tümör tanımlanmıştır. Hastada tedaviden oniki yıl sonra ortaya çıkan postradyasyon sarkomu, yumuşak doku tümörlerinde uzun süreli izlemin önemini vurgulamaktadır.
