A combined treatment with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy is necessary for children with adenomyosarcomas. In order to reduce the side effects of the treatment, it seems reasonable to establish a therapy plan taking into consideration the risk of recurrences. Besides the classification of stages according to the N.W.T.S., the following factors should be considered: histologic findings, manifestations of the lymph nodes, number of tumor nodes, size of the adenomyosarcoma, and a rupture of the adenomyosarcoma. A postoperative polychemotherapy is sufficient for children of stage I presenting favorable histological findings. For the stages II and III, an irradiation of the tumor and the lymph outflow regions or the total abdomen with 24 Gy is recommendable in addition to chemotherapy. For stage IV, an irradiation of the lung up to 12 Gy in addition to chemotherapy has proved to be useful. A pre-operative radio- or chemotherapy is indicated especially in case of a great tumor volume and stage III and IV.
