Local staging and treatment in extremity rhabdomyosarcoma. A report from the EpSSG‐RMS2005 study

Abstract

Even if the lymph node staging was not always complete according to the RMS2005 protocol, node sampling changed lymph node status in a significant number of patients. Despite the higher rate of patients treated with locoregional radiotherapy, survival in RMS2005 did not improve compared to the previous European SIOP-MMT95 study.
