Abstract

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma is a malignant soft tissue tumour that recapitulates the biological features of primitive striated muscle. This tumour is rarely encountered in adults. We present a report of maxillary embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma with oral and nasal extension in a 23-year-old man because of its rarity in both location and age.
