Angiomyofibroblastoma

Angiomyofibroblastoma is an uncommon benign mesenchymal tumor. It occurs mostly in the vulvovaginal area of women, but can also be observed in men. The World Health Organization, 2020, reclassified these tumors as a specific type of tumor in the category of fibroblastic and myofibroblastic tumors.
The gross features of AMFB are well-circumscribed. Usually, most tumors grow slowly, and patients do not feel pain. It also has low tendency for local recurrence.

Location

In women
* Female genital tract
* Vulva
* Posterior perivesical space
In men
