Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a malignant tumor of striated muscle composed of neoplastic mesenchymal cells with varying degrees of cell differentiation. It accounts 60% of all soft-tissue sarcomas in children and only 2-5% in adults. Typical pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma variants like embryonal and alveolar sub-types are less frequently occur in adults. It has predilection for viscera followed by the head and neck region. RMS occurs in the head and neck region with 35% and 10-12% in the oral cavity. Establishment of the correct diagnosis and histological sub-type is of very importance in the treatment of this disease, because of the rarity of this neoplasm in the adult population the treatment is not uniform in the literature. Here we present case of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma as a gingival growth in a 26-year-old female with clinical, radiological, histo-pathological and immunohistochemical aspects.

Epidermoid Cysts (EC) are rare cysts of the head and neck region, which may confuse with many soft tissue sublingual mass pathologies. A presentation of such cyst is important to decide the surgical approach. The aim of this paper was to present the role of USG and MRI for determine the surgical approach. A female patient presented with chronic asymptomatic swelling over left submandibular neck which was single diffuse, non-tender, soft, compressible, fluctuant with normal overlying skin. Swelling was not movable with deglutination and protrusion of tongue. MRI and USG guided FNAC was conclusive to diagnose the lesion. Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis. Lateral neck swelling should be considered as EC for differential diagnosis. A careful physical examination and fine needle aspiration and diagnostic imaging should be performed which clarifies the surgical approach.
