Abstract

Aims and Background :Aggressive angiomyxoma is rare tumorof pelvicand perineal organs,occurring usually in women ofage, and carrying a high tendency to local infiltration and relapse. Most literature about Aggressive angiomyxoma consists of isolated case reports. Presentation of Case:We reported a case of 41-year-old Libyan womancomplainingof a slow and progressive growth ofa right vulvar labia major a pedunculated tumor with long a stalk was detected, measuringof 12.0x8.0 cm. Wide surgical resection of the tumor were performed.Histopathology diagnosed a large aggressive angiomyxoma with uninvolved resection margins. Patient remains without recurrence at 8.0 -months follow- up. Discussion and Conclusion: Non Aggressive angiomyxoma is rare butshould be excluded inany large vulval mass.We expect that awareness accompanied with wide freesafe margin excision has important role to prevent the recurrence of tumor.
