The RHIP and STAR folks keep calling rhabdomyosarcoma "extremely rare," but
I recall reading not too long ago that it is the fifth most common cancer
among children.  Granted, cancer in very young children is less likely than
in adults, but this hardly seems worthy of the "extremely rare" label.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the reference at the moment.  If I can
track it down, I'll send it up to the list.
