Relapsed rhabdomyosarcoma: treatment recommendations from the European pediatric soft tissue sarcoma study group (EpSSG).

At least one-third of patients with localized rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and 60-70% of patients with metastatic RMS experience progressive disease or relapse. Following relapse, outcomes generally remain poor with limited treatment options and a high risk of subsequent recurrence. Optimal treatment requires a multidisciplinary approach incorporating chemotherapy with local control.
