Classification
Histologic classification of rhabdomyosarcoma
- The international classification of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) was created by the Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study group (IRSG) therapeutic trials (IRS-I to IV).[1][2]
- The four main subgroups are:
- Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS)
- Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS)
- Botryoid and spindle cell (leiomyomatous) RMS
- Sclerosing and spindle cell RMS
- Separate categories for other subtypes which do not classify into above groups:[3]
- Undifferentiated
- Pleomorphic/anaplastic
- Sarcoma, not otherwise specified (NOS)
