Overview
Rhabdomyosarcoma arises from the skeletal muscle cells. Development of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma is result of specific genetic mutations. The pathogenesis of rhabdomyosarcoma include t(2;13) and t(1;13) chromosomal translocations. The microscopic pathology of rhabdomyosarcoma depends on the histological subtype.
Pathophysiology
Histology
- The origin of rhabdomyosarcoma is straited muscle cells.[1]
- The presentation sites of rhabdomyosarcoma are:
- Head and neck (28%)
- Extremities (24%)
- Genitourinary tract (18%)
- Trunk (11%)
- Orbit (7%)
- Retroperitoneum (6%)
- Other sites such as bladder, vagina, nasopharynx, and middle ear (3%)
Pathogenesis
- The exact pathogenesis of rhabdomyosarcoma is unclear.[2]
- Distruption of skeletal muscle progenitor cell growth and related differentiation may cause rhabdomyosarcoma.[2]
- There is causal association between MET proto-oncogene and macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF).[3]
- It is thought that P53 is related to oncogenic transformation and tumor progression.[4]
Genetics
Specific genetic abnormalities have been identified, that are specific for alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas. They include t(2;13) and t(1;13) chromosomal translocations resulting in PAX3-FKHR and PAX7-FKHR gene fusions.
Microscopic Pathology
Characteristic features on microscopic analysis are variable depending on the rhabdomyosarcoma subtype:[5]
Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma
- Characterized by Alveolus-like pattern.
- Fibrous septae lined by tumor cells.
- Cells may "fall-off" the septa, i.e. be detached/scattered in the alveolus-like space.
- Space between fibrous septae may be filled with tumor, called solid variant of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma.
- Rhabdomyoblasts: Essentially diagnostic cells with eccentric nucleus and moderate amount of intensely eosinophilic cytoplasm.
- Nuclear pleomorphism
- Mitoses
Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma
- Randomly arranged small cells
- Myxoid matrix
- Strap cells: Tadpole like morphology
- Rhabdomyoblasts: Essentially diagnostic cells with eccentric nucleus and moderate amount of intensely eosinophilic cytoplasm
Botryoid Rhabdomyosarcoma
- Malignant cells in an abundant myxoid stroma.
- Non-proliferating layer deep to the surface called "Cambium layer".
- Cambium layer is defined as cellular region deep to epithelial component.
Spindlecell Rhabdomyosarcoma
- Vesicular growth pattern
- Spindle cells
