Abstract EN

Vulvar aggressive angiomyxoma (AA) is a rare mesenchymal tumor of the vulva.

Due to its slow-growing nature, it is often overlooked and misdiagnosed by primary care providers (PCPs).

We describe a case report of vulvar AA in a 38-year-old woman who underwent complete surgical excision of the neoplasm with no evidence of recurrence on a 5-year followup.

A literature review follows to provide PCPs with the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features that this tumor displays.
