Abstract
Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) is a highly aggressive pediatric malignancy that can develop in various anatomical locations. This case series presents four pediatric patients diagnosed with ERMS, including one with the uncommon presentation of prostatic rhabdomyosarcoma. By analyzing clinical features, treatment strategies, and outcomes, this study aims to provide insights into the challenges of managing this malignancy in different anatomical sites.
