D D Dalal1, H B Tongaonkar, S Krishnamurthy, J N Kulkarni.   

Abstract

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the prostate is a rare. Highly malignant tumour. The median age of occurrence is five years, but sporadic cases have been reported in adults' To the best of our knowledge, till date, fewer than ten cases have been reported of which only two are above the age of sixty years. We report a case of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of prostate in a patient more than sixty years of age. If one is not aware of this entity, one can make a mistake in the diagnosis as well as treatment.
