Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a very rare, highly malignant neoplasm thought to originate from the pluripotent mesenchymal tissue. Predominantly diagnosed among children and teenagers, however they can also be encountered in adults. There are a few risk factors associated with RMS like family history of malignancy and genetic syndromes like neurofibromatosis type 1, Li-Fraumeni syndrome, Noonan syndrome and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome; however, most cases of RMS are sporadic. Other factors like radiotherapy for other malignancy and pre-natal radiation exposure also are associated with increased risk of developing RMS. The most common reported sites for RMS are head, neck, trunk, pelvis and lower limbs. Omental involvement of primary RMS has been rarely reported in the literature. Principally, the survival of treated RMS cases has improved, primarily due to multidisciplinary management approaches. In this paper, we report a case of primary pleomorphic RMS in a 50-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain.
横纹肌肉瘤（RMS）是一种非常罕见的高度恶性肿瘤，被认为起源于多能间充质组织。主要在儿童和青少年中诊断出来，但也可见于成人。有一些与RMS相关的危险因素，如恶性肿瘤家族史以及神经纤维瘤病1型、李-佛美尼综合征、努南综合征和贝克威思-维德曼综合征等遗传综合征；然而，大多数RMS病例是散发性的。其他因素，如因其他恶性肿瘤接受放疗和产前辐射暴露，也与发生RMS的风险增加有关。RMS最常见的报道部位是头部、颈部、躯干、骨盆和下肢。原发性RMS累及网膜在文献中鲜有报道。原则上，接受治疗的RMS病例的生存率有所提高，这主要归功于多学科管理方法。在本文中，我们报告了一例50岁女性原发性多形性RMS病例，该患者表现为腹痛。
