A member asked:
What can cause rhabdomyosarcoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unknown: The etiology of rms is really unknown. There have been correlations to recreational drug use in utero, radiation exposure in utero, low socioecomic factors, and antibiotic use shortly after birth. There are genetic syndromes associated with a higher incidence as well. Those should be researched with a geneticist. All rms should see a geneticist.
