Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the commonest soft sarcoma in kids, with alveolar and embryonal variants distinguishable by histopathology and, more significantly, molecular biology. RMS occurs intermittently in a substantial proportion of cases without a predisposing condition. Nevertheless, it is well established that certain hereditary factors enhance the likelihood of developing RMS. Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome, Gorlin syndrome, Costello, NF1, and Li Fraumeni syndromes are some of them. These syndromes present with RMS during childhood.A 47-year-old female with NF 1 discovered a lump in her right forearm one year prior to presentation. When the patient noticed ulceration on the swelling, she sought medical attention. A tumor was detected in the center of the right forearm via MRI, and it was suspected to be a cystic or myxoid soft-tissue tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma or a peripheral neural tumor. We classified the tumor as stage 4 due to axillary lymph node involvement and lung metastasis. Histopathology confirmed rhabdomyosarcoma. The patient then received radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and her tumor went into remission.After confirming NF1 syndrome, we advise patients to adhere to the standard cancer screening protocol. The screening would assist in the earlier diagnosis of tumors, leading to a reduction in complications.
The present investigation aims to examine the impact of the mindfulness-based stress reduction program (MBSR) and mindful practice on individuals diagnosed with cancer, drawing upon the extant literature. The MBSR program typically spans over a duration of eight weeks and involves a structured and intensive approach to training individuals in mindfulness meditation techniques. The present investigation examined the Pubmed search engine and identified a total of 1919 studies through the utilization of specific keywords. The scope of the search was narrowed down to encompass solely studies and trials that incorporated mindfulness practices. Qualitative intervention methods, reviews, observational studies, metanalysis, yoga, and dietary modifications were explicitly excluded from consideration. We additionally incorporated investigations with an impact factor equal to or greater than 10. The present study involved the analysis and review of nine studies that have been assigned an impact factor of ten or higher. Participants displayed more serenity; they felt more vibrant, balanced, upbeat, pleased, and emotionally strong. Their enhanced level of acceptance, presence, and perceptiveness in their interpersonal connections resulted in an elevated standard of living.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
