Abstract

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), arising from mesenchymal cells, is
the most common soft tissue tumour in children and accounts for
up to half of all sarcomas. We present the case of a 33-year-old
male presented to the urology department of the University College
Hospital Galway (Ireland) in March 2009 with a 2-month history
of a left scrotal swelling, increasing in size.
