Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcoma which was first described by Weber has generally been considered an uncommon tumor of striated muscle. Recently it was classified as four types as embryonal, alveolar, pleomorphic, and botryoid type by Horn and Enterline. A fourth type, sarcoma botryoides was generally recognized as a variant of the embryonal type. Al1 of these tumors tend to have a short clinical course, but the survival time seems to be slightly improved by sugical excision followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Authors report one case of rhabdomyosarcoma, which was seen in the right lower leg and showed a rapid growing nature to die, which experienced in Busan National University Hospital, February, 1983.
