title: [Case report. Aggressive angiomyxoma of vagina. A rare tumor diagnosed].
abstract: The case of a female patient of 35 years of age, with a pedunculated tumor dependent of the vagina, of approximately 25 x 12 x 8 cm, who had a wide resection. The report was consistent with myxoid aggressive angiomyxoma. This is a myxoid mesenchymal neoplasm of slow growth, which mainly appears in deep soft tissues of the pelvic, genital or perineal areas of adult women. It is usually diagnosed after surgical resection by histopathologic examination. Routine evaluation includes: complete physical examination, imaging and pathology report of diagnostic confirmation.
