Rhabdomyosarcoma in adults

does anyone know of Adult Rhabdomyosarcoma?

  • Hi myatts and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I'm not sure how much you know about rhabdomyosarcoma already but you can find out more just here.

    Unfortunately we haven't had many members posting on the forum about this lately but if you give our cancer nurses a call next week they may be able to help. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on 0808 800 4040.

    I hope this helps and that you're able to find what you're looking for soon.

    Kind regards,
