RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Malignant Transformation of a Lipomyelocele into a Rhabdomyosarcoma? JF American Journal of Neuroradiology JO Am. J. Neuroradiol.

YR 2008 UL http://www.ajnr.org/content/29/3/434.abstract AB SUMMARY: We report the unusual transformation of a lipomyelocele to a rhabdomyosarcoma in a 3-year-old boy. A lipomyelocele is not considered pre-malignant, but the possibility of developing such a tumor may represent another reason for close neurological follow-up in patients with spinal dysraphism.
