Sarcome botryoïde du col utérin, une localisation exceptionnelle: à propos d’un cas

Botryoid sarcoma is a subtype of rhabdomyosarcoma affecting soft tissues and exceptionally the cervix. We here report the case of an 18-year-old female patient presenting to the emergency department with a feeling of pelvic heaviness, metrorrhagia and urinary retention. Gynecological examination showed budding mass of the uterine cervix. The biopsy showed botryoid sarcoma. Radiological evaluation revealed heterodense cervico-isthmic corporeal mass measuring 97 / 87 mm, without adenopathies or effusions or tumors at other sites. Treatment involved neoadjuvant chemotherapy with vincristine - adriamycin and cyclophosphamide (V-A-C), followed by surgery (total hysterectomy without adnexal preservation). After a follow-up of 3 years, the patient is still in clinical and radiological remission.
