Angiomyofibroblastoma is a rare benign tumor that mainly occurs in the genital tract of middle-aged female patients. This study presents a case of scrotal angiomyofibroblastoma in a 42-year-old patient, diagnosed through magnetic resonance imaging.
Angiomyofibroblastoma (AMF) is a rare benign myofibroblastic tumor that mainly occurs in the genital tract of middle-aged female patients. However, it can also arise in the scrotum, spermatic cord, and bladder. We described, herein, a case of a 42-year-old patient who was admitted to our hospital with a left scrotal mass. Imaging examinations showed that the mass had abundant vessels and displayed obvious progressive intensification on enhanced MRI. The following histopathological and immunohistochemical studies led to the diagnosis of AMF. Here, we describe the magnetic resonance imaging findings of a case of scrotal AMF. We hope that the information can help radiologists to identify AMF.
