“…Intermediate rhabdomyomas represent a spectrum of differentiation and maturation between adult rhabdomyomas and classic fetal rhabdomyomas [1]. Fetal rhabdomyoma is even rarer than the adult subtype [8] and it is usually diagnosed at birth or even during the pregnancy, most frequently in the postauricular region. There are less than 30 cases reported in adult patients (Table 1) and none with the diagnosis of a fetal rhabdomyoma in the hypopharynx.…”

Extracardiac rhabdomyomas are rare benign tumors showing skeletal muscle differentiation. They can be divided into adult, fetal, and genital subtypes.Fetal rhabdomyomas are rarer than the adult subtype and although usually diagnosed at birth, the diagnosis is based on histology rather than patient age.We present a rare case of a 25-year-old man with a cellular fetal (juvenile) rhabdomyoma, found in the postcricoid region of the hypopharynx.
