RESUMO

Rhabdomyoma is a rare soft tissue tumor and account for 1 to 2 % of skeletal muscle tumors. Rhabdomyomas are uncommon with less than one hundred cases reported. Head and neck rhabdomyomas have their origin in the third and fourth branchial clefts skeletal muscle. Describe the clinical, histopathological and radiological aspects of a recurrent adult mouth floor rhabdomyoma and the differential diagnosis for this uncommon entity. Two years after surgical resection, of a fifty-four years old male patient, with mouth floor rhabdomyoma, he started to complain of submucosal lesion at the oropharynx right lateral wall. The CT scan has shown extension to the parapharyngeal space and recurrent rhabdomyoma hypothesis has been done. The patient underwent a new surgical resection and the histopathological examination confirmed a recurrent adult rhabdomyoma.
