description Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) of the cervix is a rare entity, encountered mainly in the first two decades of life. The literature consists mainly of case reports and few small case series, and no standard treatment guidelines are available.

We report 3 cases of cervical RMS, in adolescents highlighting the clinical presentation, diagnosis and management.
