Rhabdomyosarcoma is an aggressive malignant striated muscle neoplasm commonly seen in children involving orbit, paranasal sinuses, cheek, tongue, and rarely upper lip. The anaplastic subtype is further rare and associated with poor prognosis. Herein, we report a 3-year-old female with this uncommon variant at an uncommon site.
