Abstract

Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and germ cell tumor are common tumors of childhood. Surgery had a central role in the management of children with these tumors. However, survival rates were not good and increased morbidity with surgery alone. Currently, multimodal treatment and assited endoscopy improved dramatically survival and morbidity. Material and Method: Cases study, RMS and endodermal sinus tumor of vagine (EST) were analyzed retrospectively at Children Hospital No2 HCMC from 1/1/2014 to 30/6/2015. Results: Age ranging is 2.5 and 3.5 years (RMS, EST), Biopsies, chemotherapy and vaginal endoscopy. Both of them are still alive and no recurrent. Conclusions: Vaginal endoscopy plays a important role in the diagnosis and treatment of RMS and EST in children. This is one part of multimodal therapy which improved survival and decreased morbidity.
