Abstract

Aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare kind of neoplasm derived from mesenchyma, which is easily confused with other superficial masses. Here, we present a 21‐year‐old young female with a 2‐year history of a mass in the right vulva. The patient's laboratory analysis yielded unremarkable results. Ultrasound examination revealed the presence of a heterogeneous solid mass in the right vulva with blood flow. Enhanced computed tomography imagines showed a capsular neoplasm in the posterior the perineal region without obvious enhancement. The patient received surgery. Biopsy after surgery revealed that the tumor was AAM. The patient was followed up regularly. In this article, we will describe sonographic and computed tomography imagines, histologic features of AAM, and review the related literature.

超声波有助于诊断和识别侵袭性血管肌瘤：病例报告

侵袭性血管瘤（AAM）是一种来自间质的罕见肿瘤，很容易与其他表皮肿块混淆。在此，我们介绍一位 21 岁的年轻女性，她的右外阴肿块已有 2 年病史。患者的实验室分析结果无异常。超声波检查显示，患者右外阴部有一异型实性肿块，伴有血流。增强计算机断层扫描图像显示会阴后部有囊性肿瘤，但无明显强化。患者接受了手术治疗。术后活检显示肿瘤为 AAM。患者接受了定期随访。本文将介绍 AAM 的声像图和计算机断层扫描图像、组织学特征，并回顾相关文献。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (JCU) is an international journal dedicated to the worldwide dissemination of scientific information on diagnostic and therapeutic applications of medical sonography. The scope of the journal includes--but is not limited to--the following areas: sonography of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, vascular system, nervous system, head and neck, chest, breast, musculoskeletal system, and other superficial structures; Doppler applications; obstetric and pediatric applications; and interventional sonography. Studies comparing sonography with other imaging modalities are encouraged, as are studies evaluating the economic impact of sonography. Also within the journal''s scope are innovations and improvements in instrumentation and examination techniques and the use of contrast agents. JCU publishes original research articles, case reports, pictorial essays, technical notes, and letters to the editor. The journal is also dedicated to being an educational resource for its readers, through the publication of review articles and various scientific contributions from members of the editorial board and other world-renowned experts in sonography.
