Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), a malignant neoplasm of skeletal muscle origin, is the most common soft tissue sarcoma caused by infectious disease etiology, especially in nondeveloped countries. Despite being a relatively rare cancer, it accounts for approximately 40% of all recorded soft tissue sarcomas. Alveolar RMSs are seen to occur in children, while around 80% cases occur in the first three decades of life. We present here, a case of a 12-year-old child having alveolar RMS, presenting clinically and radiologically with pleural effusion.
横纹肌肉瘤（RMS）是一种起源于骨骼肌的恶性肿瘤，是由感染性疾病病因引起的最常见的软组织肉瘤，尤其是在不发达国家。尽管它是一种相对罕见的癌症，但它约占所有已记录的软组织肉瘤的40%。肺泡型横纹肌肉瘤多见于儿童，约80%的病例发生在生命的前三十年。我们在此报告一例12岁患有肺泡型横纹肌肉瘤的儿童病例，该病例临床和放射学表现为胸腔积液。
