Published: February 1995

Aggressive angiomyxoma is a recently described pathological condition which affects mainly the soft tissues of the pelvis and perineum in women. It is neither encapsulated nor circumscribed and has a tendency for local recurrence. We report a 50-year-old woman who presented with a mass arising within the vaginal wall and extending to the perineum which appeared cystic on ultrasound. The mass was excised and there is no evidence of recurrence 40 months after surgery.
