“…The cytologic appearance of adult RM has been described in several case reports 4–19. Our findings are mostly parallel with those of previous literature, including basic cytomorphologic features as polygonal cells with abundant eosinophilic granular cytoplasm, small uniform peripherally located nuclei, and indistinct cell borders.…”

Adult rhabdomyoma is a rare primary benign tumour of striated muscle origin that almost exclusively presents in the head and neck region with predilection for male. We herein report a case of an adult rhabdomyoma in a 67-year-old male with cytologic features. The lesions was located in the tongue extended to the left parapharyngeal region. We discuss the cytological findings with a brief review of the literature on this entity.

Adult-type rhabdomyoma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor seen in adults that becomes symptomatic after a long period of slow growth. It almost always originates from tissues of the head and neck containing striated muscle. The symptoms of rhabdomyoma include dysphagia, hoarseness, and globus. This report presents the case of a 60-year-old woman with isolated adult-type rhabdomyoma of the piriform sinus who presented with dyspnea and difficult tracheal intubation. The report emphasizes the importance of evaluating patients with upper airway obstruction for laryngeal masses before intubation

“…The tumor can occur in various sites of the head and neck region such as oral cavity, submandibular region, tongue, pharynx, larynx, soft palate, thyroid, cheek, tonsillar region, and parapharyngeal space. It can also manifests itself as solitary, even multinodular or multifocal lesions 4 .…”

Histopathologically adult extracardiac rhabdomyoma is a benign tumour of mature striated muscle. It is a slow-growing tumour with predilection to occur in head and neck region. They appear mainly as a solitary lesion, and about 15% of them can be multicentric. A 56-year-old man presented to us with the floor of mouth swelling persisted for one year and the right neck swelling for three years mimicking a plunging ranula. Radiological imaging revealed enhancing mass at the floor of mouth and submandibular region. The mass represented a nonvascular benign tumour. Subsequently, the patient underwent excision of the mass via transcervical and transoral method. Histopathological examination revealed adult type of extracardiac rhabdomyoma. Adult type of extracardiac rhabdomyoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis for the head and neck masses. A complete excision will reduce the risk of recurrence.
