Rhabdomyosarcoma is a type of soft tissue sarcoma that typically affects children and young adults. A 2018 study in the Journal of Neurological Surgery explored risk stratification methods for rhabdomyosarcoma to help guide treatment decisions. The study examined using criteria such as tumor size, location, and stage to determine low, intermediate, or high risk groups for rhabdomyosarcoma patients. Stratifying patients into risk groups allows doctors to tailor therapy to a patient's individual risk level.
