Abstract
Sarcoma of the kidney is uncommon and represents between 1% and 3% of all malignant renal tumors. Primary rhabdomyosarcoma of the kidney in adult age is unusual, and only sporadic cases have been reported. This is a very aggressive tumor with dismal prognosis. We report a new case of pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma of the kidney in an adult patient.
