The indication for a radiological examination of a patient with low back pain by CT or MRI scans is based on age, medical history and clinical findings. The result of morphological (and possibly structural) tests should be consistent with the clinical findings. In fact, the scans often do not provide very powerful evidence. The elderly patient frequently has permanent deformations or primary or secondary malignant bone lesions and therefore requires special tests.

Rhabdomyoma is an uncommon benign tumor, with the majority arising from cardiac muscle. Seventy to 90% of extracardiac rhabdomyomas are found in the head and neck region, usually within the upper aerodigestive tract. The case of a 7-month-old boy with an enlarging posterior triangle neck mass found to be fetal rhabdomyoma is presented. This location is quite rare for benign rhabdomyoma, with previous literature search showing overwhelming predilection for the upper aerodigestive tract.
