Rhadomyosarcoma of prostate is relatively rare, malignant tumor in urologic field. This tumor is believed to arise from primitive mesenchymal cells and the growth usually protrudes into the bladder and urethra causing obstruction with urinary retention. The excretory urogram and cystourethrogram demonstrate the displacement of the bladder and elongation of posterior urethra.
