CT and MRI scans revealed a well\u2010defined multilobular mass in the right parapharyngeal space. Surgical excision was performed, and histopathological evaluation confirmed ARM. ARM diagnosis presents a challenge due to nonspecific clinical and radiological manifestations. Histopathological examination remains the gold standard for definitive diagnosis. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice, and close postoperative monitoring is crucial due to high recurrence rates.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case highlights the diagnostic challenges and treatment modalities for ARM in a rare anatomical location.
