Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common pediatric malignancy with a predilection for head and neck region. Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma is a variant of rhabdomyosarcoma which is extremely rare in middle ear. We present a case of middle year embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in a five-year-old child who was treated as otitis media on first presentation and later misdiagnosed as a vascular aural polyp on histopathology.
