Abstract

Paediatric solid neoplasms are a global burden causing highest incidence of mortality in children. Among the soft tissue tumours in children, Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common. They possess variety of histologies that differ among various age groups. Here, we discuss a case of a 3-year-old child diagnosed with embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, which initially mimicked an orbital pseudotumour. Histopathology and Immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis. This case report has uncommon clinical and radiological presentation of rhabdomyosarcoma.
