Publication Sarcoma Botryoid of Vagina and Cervix in a three year old girl(Institute of Medicine, 2000) Rana, Ashma; Gurung, Geeta; Devkota, Krishna; Amatya, Archana; Joshi, BR; Baral, Josie; Pradhan, Neelam; Sharma, Rashmi; Giri, KantiAbstract A three year old with three months history of abdominal lump, blood mixed vaginal discharge and occasional urinary retention was operated as a case of sarcoma botryoid of vagina and cervix. This was proven histologically. With surgery it was possible to remove a huge mass arising from cervix and vagina measuring 10X10 cm. It was almost mimicking central cervical myoma. Initial surgery was observed to be beneficial in this case as it showed immediate good results by providing reduction of total tumour mass. She was planned for combination chemotherapy with VAC; however she developed abdominopelvic recurrence very soon. Keywords: young girl, vaginal growth, rhabdomyosarcoma, sarcomabytryoids
