On his first admission for surgery, a small lesion, 1.5 cm in diameter, was detected adjacent to the inner side of the left kidney by abdominal axial computed tomography (CT), which was initially suspected to be a benign lesion; however, a postoperative follow-up CT scan done 5 months later revealed that the lesion had enlarged remarkably to 8 cm in diameter. Thus, total resection was performed under the presumed diagnosis of a malignant retroperitoneal tumor. The tumor was found to be adjacent to the inner portion of the left kidney and covered by Gerota's fascia. As it involved the ileolumbar muscle and had a metastatic lymph node, complete resection was performed. The resected specimen was 8.5 × 6.5 × 5 cm in size and was histologically confirmed as a retroperitoneal rhabdomyosarcoma of embryonal type. Two courses of adjuvant chemotherapy with adriamycin, vincristine, and cyclophosphamide were given, and the patient has shown no signs of recurrence for 2 years since his second operation.: Springer-Verlag Tokyo, 2000 Key Words: retroperitoneal rhabdomyosarcoma, ascending colon cancer, rapid growth nationallicence Kunieda Katsuyuki Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut Saji Shigetoyo Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut Kuwabara Ikuhide Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut Watanabe Atsushi Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut Katoh Motohisa Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut Sugiyama Yasuyuki Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut Shimokawa Kuniyasu Department of Laboratory Medicine, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut https://doi.org/10.1007/s005950050603 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1007/s005950050603 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Kunieda Katsuyuki Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Saji Shigetoyo Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Kuwabara Ikuhide Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Watanabe Atsushi Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Katoh Motohisa Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Sugiyama Yasuyuki Second Department of Surgery, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Shimokawa Kuniyasu Department of Laboratory Medicine, Gifu University School of Medicine, 40-Tsukasa-machi, Gifu-city 500-8705, Japan, JP aut Metadata rights reserved Springer special CC-BY-NC licence nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-springer
