The middle ear is a very rare site for this neoplasm as it accounts for only 10 % of head neck rhabdomyosarcoma.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Presentation of case<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We report here the case of a three years-old child who was admitted to the emergency room for a left parotid and retro-auricular swelling with grade V facial palsy. The patient experienced chronic otorrhea with left facial palsy for two months. Two weeks later, a left parotid swelling appeared and gradually increased in size with weight loss. Computed tomography showed a slightly dense tissue lesion in the left mastoid. The patient underwent a diagnostic mastoidectomy. Pathology and immunohistochemical study were compatible with an embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Rhabdomyosarcoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis of any mastoiditis resistant to treatment in a young child. Because of its serious prognosis, rhabdomyosarcoma must be diagnosed at an early stage to increase chances of recovery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.08.060","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,3]],"date-time":"2020-09-03T11:57:09Z","timestamp":1599134229000},"page":"108-111","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Embryonal mastoid rhabdomyosarcoma in a three years old child"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"75","author":[{"given":"M.","family":"Beghdad","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Mkhatri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"O.","family":"Berrada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R.","family":"Abada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Mahtar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-25-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"780","DOI":"10.1177\/014556130508401214","article-title":"Rhabdomyosarcoma of the middle ear and mastoid: a case report and review of literature","volume":"84","author":"Abbas","year":"2005","journal-title":"Ear Nose Throat J"},{"key":"R2-25-20260114","first-page":"2835","article-title":"Pediatric head and neck malignancies","volume":"3","author":"Carol","year":"2010"},{"key":"R3-25-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"616","DOI":"10.1016\/S1079-2104(98)90356-0","article-title":"A follow-up of rhabdomyosarcoma of the infratemporal fossa region in adults based on the magnetic resonance imaging findings: case reports","volume":"86","author":"Goto","year":"1998","journal-title":"Oral Surg.
