    Abstract:
    Adult rhabdomyosarcomas in the head and neck are extremely rare and carry a poor prognosis. They should be considered as a distinct clinical entity. The authors report a case of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in an adult nasopharynx treated with a combined modality treatment of chemotherapy and radiotherapy as per the European International Society of Paediatric Oncology (SIOP) MMT 89 study, group D. The patient responded to treatment and 10 years later, he is still alive with no signs of metastatic disease.
