Abstract

Local control approaches for bladder/prostate rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) may include surgery and/or radiation after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, with goal of maximizing long term function. We report a case of bladder RMS presenting with acute renal complications in a 2-year-old female necessitating bilateral nephrostomy tube placement before administration of chemotherapy. As local control for RMS is delayed until after 12 weeks of neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been given, management of medical complications prior to surgery is not protocolized, making case reports and discussion helpful to future patients and providers.
