Abstract:
Aggressive angiomyxoma (AA) is a slow-growing vulvovaginal mesenchymal neoplasm affecting women of reproductive age and is associated with a high risk of local recurrence. Usually, it presents as a vulval polyp clinically and needs to be distinguished from other benign myxoid tumors with a low risk of local recurrence. It is diagnosed only on histopathology. The treatment of choice usually being wide local excision with tumour-free margins and occasionally hormonal manipulation. We present here a case of a 40-year-old female presenting with a large, fleshy, polypoidal mass on the right labia majora.
