Abstract
A rare case of aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is reported here for its unusual presentation as a cervical polyp, in a 45âyearâold woman. It is a soft tissue tumor. Preoperative diagnosis was uterine cervical polyp. Surgical excision was done. Histopathology examination revealed vascular, poorly circumscribed tumor mass composed of spindle cells embedded in myxoid stroma. In the reviewed literature, a single case of AAM mimicking cervical polyp has been reported. Our case may be the second rare case of AAM presenting as a cervical polyp.
