Abstract
Orbital rhabdomyosarcoma is a malignant tumor involving the soft tissues particularly the muscles. Without a rapid diagnosis and treatment the prognosis may be compromised. Computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the reference investigation techniques. Any qualified Radiologist and even ophthalmologist should be able to diagnose it. Any failure to diagnose this tumor is a breach of the patient fundamental rights.
