Useful sonographic findings for diagnosing dermal metastases of rhabdomyosarcoma.

Rhabdomyosarcoma developing in deep locations, such as the genitourinary tract, and perianal and perineal regions, symptoms may be obscure. Dermal rhabdomyosarcoma metastases may be first symptom of that and those arise in the subcutaneous fat tissue, presenting as a high echoic area surrounded by a low echoic area, accompanied by a high echoic peripheral area. These sonographic findings might indicate an aggressive malignant disease, and that would be useful to differentiate from other dermal lesions.
