Abstract:
A rhabdomyosarcoma of the head and neck region is a rare childhood neoplasm often presenting with vague symptoms that can easily mimic other diseases. We present an unusual case of an alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma of the soft palate in a three-year-old child, that presented as a peritonsillar abscess.
