Description

Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common primary malignancy in children. It constitutes a therapeutic emergency. The ocular region, particularly the orbital soft tissues, is an important anatomic location for RMS, which is the most common primary orbital malignancy of childhood. Radio-chemotherapy with conservative surgery allows a recurrence-free survival of 87% at 5 years. The aim of this study was to improve the understanding of the clinical features by reviewing the literature and analysing the medical records of patients who were diagnosed with orbital Rhabdomyosarcoma in our hospital. We report 2 cases of patients treated for an orbital Rhabdomyosarcoma at the radiotherapy department of the Hassan II University Hospital of FES.
