Abstract
TThis case report concerns a 70-year woman with a complaint of abnormal vaginal bleeding and foul smelling vaginal discharge of a short duration. Speculum examination revealed a huge polyp occupying the cervix and extending further downwards. On operation, it turned out to be an endometrial polyp arising from the fundus. Histologically the polyp showed classical features of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma; confirmed immunochemically.
