The “botryoid sign”: a characteristic feature of rhabdomyosarcomas in the head and neck
We investigated nine patients with rhabomyosarcoma in the head and neck (6–53 years of age), using CT and MRI. The tumours originated in the paranasal sinuses (3), cheek (2), soft palate (1), orbit (1), stern...
