Abstract

Rhabdomyosarcoma, though the most common sarcoma in paediatric population rarely involves the tongue. Its treatment involves triple therapy i.e. surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. We present a case of rhabdomyosarcoma on the tongue in a newborn and discuss its clinical presentation and management.

Keywords: rhabdomyosarcoma, tongue, triple therapy
