Abstract

This communication presents a case report of a parameningeal rhabdomyosarcoma in a young male leading to vision loss which was effectively salvaged using prompt intervention in the form of surgery and high dose systemic steroids. Early debulking was the key in the prevention of complete blindness in our patient.
