Abstract
We present the case of an extremely rare tumor of the diaphragm. The patient was a middle-aged woman with a 1-month history of dyspnea, fatigue, and cough. Chest roentgenogram and computed tomography scan of the thorax revealed a mass located at the dome of the right diaphragm. Pathologic examination of the biopsy specimen revealed pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma.
