摘要
Eight cases of childhood rhabdomyosarcoma arising in the vagina are presented. All were treated with curietherapy, and 7 of 8 received chemotherapy in addition. With a median follow up of 4 yr, 6 of 7 had local control without surgery, 1 required colpohysterectomy for microscopic disease after curietherapy. These techniques of curietherapy and chemotherapy for localized rhabdomyosarcoma of the vagina allow one to obtain the cure while avoiding mutilating surgery. © 1979.
