Abstract

A patient, aged 26, had a large parietal tumor, clinically revealed by intracranial hypertension and left sized paresthesia. Removal of tumor was followed by a rapid recurrence. Rhabdomyosarcoma was diagnosed on the second surgical specimen. These tumors are rare in the central nervous system. They occur mostly, though not exclusively, in young adults. Their prognosis is poor and their histogenesis is still unclear.
