Abstract
Primary rhabdomyosarcoma of the alimentary tract is extremely rare, only 11 cases have been reported in the literature. Long-term survival in adults may be possible if the tumor is detected at an early stage even though it is asymptomatic. This highly malignant tumor can be treated by surgical excision, chemotherapy, and irradiation. A 12th case--of stage 1, pararectal, rhabdomyosarcoma--is reported.Keywords
