Abstract
- Rhabdomyosarcoma is a highly aggressive malignant tumor that originates from mesenchymal cell and invades soft tissue. While the head and neck is the common site of the rhabdomyosarcoma, the parapharyngeal space is rarely reported as a primary site of rhabdomyosarcoma. Therefore, we present a case of rhabdomyosarcoma in the parapharyngeal space.
