Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of children. Tumors arising in the extrahepatic biliary tree are extremely rare (less than 1% of cases). In this location, most are RMS of the botryoid type. We report a case of a 10-year-old child with embryonal RMS arising in the mesenchyma of the hepatic pedicle. Most tumor cells were large, round with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm. A few cells were small round or spindle-shaped. Tumor cells showed positive immunostaining for muscle markers: desmin and sarcomeric actin. Electron microscopy revealed 2 types of cells: some were undifferentiated and others showed striated muscle differentiation features.
