Angiomyofibroblastoma of the female urethra
1Department of Urology, Sapporo Medical University School of Medicine, Japan.
Abstract
Background:
Angiomyofibroblastoma is a relatively recently described rare tumor of the superficial soft tissues. To date, 57 cases of angiomyofibroblastoma of the external genitalia in women have been reported.
Methods/Results:
We describe a case of a 24-year-old woman who presented with the urinary stream flowing out in the posterior direction and whose diagnosis was a urethral tumor, angiomyofibroblastoma.
Conclusions:
Angiomyofibroblastoma has a potential arising from the female urethra as well as other areas of the external genitalia.
