Abstract:
      Prostate embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) is characterized by a high degree of malignancy, both local rapid growth with formation of large pelvic masses, often leading to renal failure due to urethral obstruction, and systemic spread, commonly to the lungs, liver, and bone. ERMS of the prostate is a commonly occurring tumor in infants and children. It is rarely seen in adults. Here, we report on a case of the prostate ERMS in a 27-year-old man.
