Abstract

We present a case of oral Rhabdomyosarcoma in a 50 years old man presenting with a huge mass in the oral cavity. Pre operative investigations showed the mass to be Rhabdomyosarcoma. The mass was excised and subjected to histopathogical and immunohistochemical examinations which confirmed to be Rhabdomyosarcoma.
