Journal Title: International Journal of Pharma Research and Health Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Aggressive angiomyxoma is an uncommon and distinctive, mesenchymal tumor with a predilection for the pelvis and perineal regions in females and less frequently in males. Steeper and Rosai first described its histologic characteristics and its tendency to local infiltration and recurrence in 1983. About 90% of patients are women, usually of reproductive age. Here is a case of a 35 year old woman who presented to us with a pedunculated, polypoidal mass arising from right labia majora since 6 years.
