Sarcoma Botryoides is also known as:: (A) Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, (B) Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, (C) Leiomyosarcoma, (D) Lipoblastomatosis
Answer is A. Sarcoma Botryoides is a special variant of Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. Sarcoma botryoides is a variant of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma that develops in the walls of hollow, mucosal-lined structures, such as the nasopharynx, common bile duct, bladder, and vagina. Where the tumors abut the mucosa of an organ, they form a submucosal zone of hypercellularity called the cambium layer.
