Abstract:
:A 57-year-old multiparous housewife was hospitalized at University Clinical Center with painless, ulcerated, huge tumor of the vulva, which had progressively increased in size during the last five years. It was a firm, ulcerated mass involving the left vulva and measuring 35 cm in diameter. The vaginal orifice was deviated to the right by the tumor. The adnexa and the uterus were normal. The patient underwent total excision of the tumor in general anesthesia, and histology confirmed aggressive angiomyxoma. She had an uneventful postoperative period with satisfactory healing of the wound.
