Abstract

Angiomyofibroblastoma (AMFB) is a rare seen mesenchymal tumor that is categorized as a genital stromal tumor. It is commonly seen in the middle-aged women usually affecting the labia majora and rarely the vagina. A variant called AMFB-like tumors are also rarely seen in male patients. AMFB with its clinical presentation and location can be wrongly diagnosed as an aggressive angiomyxomas, bartholin cyst or lower genital tract lipomas. In the patients who are applying because of the vulvar mass, AMFB should not be forgotten for the pre-diagnosis. The treatment is generally simple surgical excision.In this case, AMFB was reported with a wrongly pre-diagnosis as a bartholin cyst to which a medical treatment had been given.

Vulvar Anjiyomiyofibroblastom: Bir Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

Angimyofiblastomlar(AMFB), genital stromal tümörler içerisinde yer alan,nadir izlenen benign mezenkimal tümörlerdir. Genellikle orta-yaş bayanlarda görülüp, sıklıkla labium majörü daha az sıklıklada vajinayı etkileyebilmektedir. AMFB benzeri tümörler adı altında, nadiren erkekler de görülebilmektedir. Yerleşim yeri ve klinik prezentasyonu ile bartolin kistleri, alt genital tract lipomları veya nadiren de agresif anjiyomiksomalar ile karışabilmektedir. Vulvar kitle ile başvuran hastalarda, ön tanıda AMFB ler unutulmamalıdır. Tedavisi genellikle basit cerrahi eksizyondur.Bu olguda, bartolin kist yanlış ön tanısı ile medikal tedavi verilen AMFB olgusundan bahsedildi
