Abstract:

Angiomyofibroblastoma (AMFB) is benign mesenchymal tumor and the incidence of AMFB is very rare. AMFB is usually occurs in the vulvo-vaginal area. It is frequently seen in middle age women. It is often mistaken for other benign disease such as Gartner’s duct cyst, epidermal inclusion cyst, leiomyoma, inguinal hernia and fibroepithelial polyps. It is most important to distinguish AMFB from Aggressive Angiomyxoma (AA). AA has strong tendency to recur. On microscopic examination, AMFs generally show higher cellularity, more numerous blood vessels and more frequent plump or short spindle-shaped cells whereas AAs have sparsely and diffusely distributed cells without the characteristics of alterating density and aggregation around small blood vessels and also AAs show more distinctive myxoid degeneration than AMFB. AMFBs main characteristics are expression of vimentin, desmin and CD34.
