dc.description.abstractInfants younger than one year of age with RhabdomyosarcTJmrr'appear to have worse prognosis compared to older children due partly to high rates of local failure.

Reluctance to use aggressive local control measures and suboptimal chemotherapy dosing are significant contributory factors. Cal 1 is made for need for more studies to determine appropriate local therapy in infants with rhabdomyosarcoma.en_US
