Abstract
A patient, aged 26, had a large parietal tumor, clinicaly revealed by intracranial hypertension and left sized paresthesia. Removal of tumor was followed by a rapid recurrence. Rhabdomyosarcoma was diagnosed on the second surgical specimen. These tumors are rare in the central ne rvous system. They occure mostly, though not exclusively, in young adu lts. Their prognosis is poor and their histogenesis is still unclear.
