Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the middle ear, as previously reported in the literature, is an almost uniformly lethal entity. An unusual case presenting with bone destruction and later demonstrating a metastatic locus has achieved a relatively long‐term NED survival status. Adequate radiotherapy, when combined with both concomitant and then maintenance chemotherapy, may not only control the local tumor but delay, prevent, or treat peripheral macroscopic or microscopic disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
