Rhabdomyoblastoma embryonal is a malignant tumor arising from skeletal muscle progenitor cells. It occurs mainly in children under 5 years of age.
Embryonic rhabdomyoblastoma is characterized by the presence of small, round tumor cells that resemble embryonic muscle progenitor cells. The tumor often occurs in the head, neck, or genitourinary system.
Symptoms depend on the location of the tumor and may include swelling, pain, bleeding, vision or hearing problems. The diagnosis is made on the basis of histological examination.
Treatment includes surgical removal of the tumor, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The prognosis depends on the stage and location of the tumor. With timely treatment, the 5-year survival rate can reach 90%.

What is a rhabdomyosome?
Embryonic rhabdomyobolomas are a type of congenital cancer. In some cases, this is a defective and abnormally developing embryo of the fetal muscle tissue. They usually come in solid oval egg shapes (with a center) that grow very quickly and easily penetrate the brain area. They most often appear in the frontal lobes, but can affect other areas of the brain.
So, how does rhabdomyoma develop in children?
As a rule, rhabdomyobotoma begins in the place where the body
