Abstract
Sarcomas usually occur in young individuals. We report a case of rhabdomyosarcoma occurring in a 28-year-old man who presented with a 5-month history of episodic pain in the right mandible. This case is significant because very few cases of this entity in the jaw have been reported in young individuals. Surgery along with radiation and chemotherapy proved successful in treating this case. Long-term follow-upis needed in such unusual cases to clarify treatment outcomes.
