The most least common form of Rhabdomyosarcoma: Botryoid Rhabdomyosarcoma: A variant of the embryonal type arising as a grape-like lesion in mucosal-lined hollow organs such as the vagina and urinary bladder. Pleomorphic Rhabdomyosarcoma: Seen primarily in adults and arises in muscles of the extremities.
