REVIEW ARTICLE: AGGRESSIVE ANGIOMYXOMA OF VAGINA

Journal Title: World Journal of Advance Healthcare Research - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 5

Abstract

Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare, slow-growing soft tissue tumor that usually arises in the pelvis and perineal regions of women in reproductive age. It has marked tendency for recurrence. Surgical resection is the main treatment modality of aggressive angiomyxoma. We describe a case of a vaginal aggressive angiomyxoma in a 40-year-old woman in which the diagnosis was only made after histological examination. Pre-operative diagnosis is difficult due to rarity and absence of diagnostic features, but it should be considered in every mass in genital, perianal and pelvic region in a woman in the reproductive age.
