Ultrasound is helpful to diagnose and identify aggressive angiomyxoma: A case report
Abstract Aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare kind of neoplasm derived from mesenchyma, which is easily confused with other superficial masses. Here, we present a 21‐year‐old young female with a 2‐year history of a mass in the right vulva. The patient's laboratory analysis yielded unremarkable results. Ultrasound examination revealed the presence of a heterogeneous solid mass in the right vulva with blood flow. Enhanced computed tomography imagines showed a capsular neoplasm in the posterior the perineal region without obvious enhancement. The patient received surgery. Biopsy after surgery revealed that the tumor was AAM. The patient was followed up regularly. In this article, we will describe sonographic and computed tomography imagines, histologic features of AAM, and review the related literature.
