Background: Parameningeal rhabdomyosarcoma (PM-RMS) accounts for about 20% of all rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) cases. At present, most research on PM-RMS has been conducted in Europe and the United States of America, and research in China has been very limited. This study sought to analyze the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors of PM-RMS in children and adolescents from two consecutive protocols at Beijing Children's Hospital (BCH).

Purpose: Alterations of the tumor suppressor gene is the second most frequent genetic event in embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS), but its associations with clinicopathologic features, outcome, or coexisting molecular events are not well defined. Additionally, alterations, mostly in the setting of neurofibromatosis type I (NF1), drive the pathogenesis of most malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor with divergent RMS differentiation (also known as malignant triton tumor [MTT]). Distinguishing between these entities can be challenging because of their pathologic overlap.

Background: Epithelioid and spindle rhabdomyosarcoma (ES-RMS) with TFCP2 rearrangement is a recently discovered rare variant of rhabdomyosarcoma composed of epithelioid and spindle cells, because it shows extraordinarily adverse prognosis and is easily misdiagnosed as other epithelioid or spindle cell tumors.
Methods: A rare case of ES-RMS with TFCP2 rearrangement was presented and English literatures in Pubmed online up to 01 July 2022 were gathered by two authors for a systematic review according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Case Presentation/results: We report a case of ES-RMS in an early 30s-years-old female, the neoplastic cells are remarkably immunoreactive with CK(AE1/AE3), and partially with ALK protein.

In developing tropical countries, rhino-orbital-cerebral mucormycosis has been a cause of severe morbidity and mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic. Classically, it develops as an aggressive angioinvasive destruction of nasal, orbital and cerebral involvement. Blindness is a major disabling complication.
