Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 8

Abstract

Introduction: Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare, locally invasive mesenchymal tumour predominantly presenting in women of reproductive age and also having a moderate to high risk for local relapse. So it needs to be differentiated from other mesenchymal tumours occurring in this region. We present here a case of a 40 –year-old female presenting with a large, fleshy, pedunculated mass on the right labia majora.
