We describe a 9-year-old boy who presented with dyspnea and with a neck mass which was initially described as a thyroid nodule, At the end of the diagnostic-therapeutic research this mass was finally diagnosed as an adult rhabdomyoma originating from the mediastinum. This is an extremely rare tumor which is usually found in the adult population.

Abstract

We describe a 9-year-old boy who presented with dyspnea and with a neck mass which was initially described as a thyroid nodule, At the end of the diagnostic-therapeutic research this mass was finally diagnosed as an adult rhabdomyoma originating from the mediastinum. This is an extremely rare tumor which is usually found in the adult population.
