==Overview==
Common complication of rhabdomyosarcoma include [[metastasis]] to lung, [[bone marrow]], and bone. Rhabdomyosarcoma is associated with a 5 year survival rate of 72%. The presence of metastasis is associated with a particularly poor [[prognosis]]. The embryonal type rhabdomyosarcoma is associated with the most favorable prognosis. Orbital and genitourinary tract rhabdomyosarcomas have the most favorable prognosis.
Common [[complications]] of rhabdomyosarcoma include [[metastasis]] to [[lung]], [[bone marrow]], and [[bone]], [[cardiomyopathy]], [[pulmonary]] [[failure]], [[renal]] [[electrolyte]] [[wasting]], [[acute myelogenous leukemia]], [[secondary]] [[malignancies]], and recurrent [[rhabdomyosarcoma]]. Rhabdomyosarcoma is associated with a 5 year [[survival rate]] of 72%. Adults and adolescents have worse [[outcome]] rather than [[children]]. The presence of [[metastasis]] is associated with a particularly poor [[prognosis]]. [[Histologically]], the [[embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma]] and anatomically, the [[Orbit (anatomy)|orbital]] and [[genitourinary tract]] rhabdomyosarcomas have the most favorable [[prognosis]].

Overview

Common complications of rhabdomyosarcoma include metastasis to lung, bone marrow, and bone, cardiomyopathy, pulmonary failure, renal electrolyte wasting, acute myelogenous leukemia, secondary malignancies, and recurrent rhabdomyosarcoma. Rhabdomyosarcoma is associated with a 5 year survival rate of 72%. Adults and adolescents have worse outcome rather than children. The presence of metastasis is associated with a particularly poor prognosis. Histologically, the embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma and anatomically, the orbital and genitourinary tract rhabdomyosarcomas have the most favorable prognosis.

Complications

Affected organs Long-term complications
Head and neck problems[8][9][10]
Bladder and bowel problems [11][12] Bladder:

Bowel:

Eye problems[13]
Dental and facial problems[14][15]

Prognosis

Tumors location Overall survival rate Event-free survival rate
Head and neck tumors 64% 35%
Orbit 85% 53%
Paramenigeal tumors In age < 3 years: 59%

In age ≥ 3 years: 65%

In age < 3 years: 33%

In age ≥ 3 year:62%

Genitourinary tumors ( non-bladder and prostate) 94% 82%
Genitourinary tumors ( bladder and prostate) 80% 64%
Extremities 46% 35%
Other sites 63% 54%
