“…Bensalah et al reported that female patients with AAM of the pelvis received preoperative neoadjuvant hormone therapy using GnRHa. After decreasing the diameter of the tumor, they underwent surgery with complete resection 12 . In cases where the tumor had progressed from the perineum to the pelvis and complete resection or organ preservation was difficult, preoperative hormone therapy with GnRHa was considered a suitable treatment for tumor shrinkage.…”

“…After decreasing the diameter of the tumor, they underwent surgery with complete resection. 12 In cases where the tumor had progressed from the perineum to the pelvis and complete resection or organ preservation was difficult, preoperative hormone therapy with GnRHa was considered a suitable treatment for tumor shrinkage. Therefore, the expression of ER and PgR in the resected tumor was examined and it was found that both of these hormone receptors were positive (Fig.…”

Introduction Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare mesenchymal tumor in females of reproductive age that occurs in the pelvis and perineal zone with a high risk of local infiltration and recurrence. Male aggressive angiomyxoma in perineal zone is very rare. Case presentation A 63‐year old male presented to our hospital with chief complaint of perineal mass. He was diagnosed with perineal lipoma by needle biopsy 3 years before. Computed tomography revealed a 16 cm perineal tumor without lymph node or distal metastasis. As the tumor had gradually increased, we performed tumor resection. The histological diagnosis of tumor using immunohistochemistry was aggressive angiomyxoma with complete resection. Moreover, expressions of both estrogen and progesterone receptors were recognized. No recurrence was seen 9 months after surgery. Conclusion Male aggressive angiomyxoma is a very rare tumor, which has expressions of female hormone receptors. Hormonal therapy might be effective for perioperative therapy or recurrence.

Aggressive angiomyxoma and cellular angiofibroma are uncommon mesenchymal tumors. Imaging plays an important role in suggesting their diagnosis and in delineating the extent of the lesion. Additionally, histopathological examination provides the definite diagnosis. An understanding of their histological features and correlating that with the key imaging features on radiology helps in narrowing the differential diagnosis, and thereby aids in management and outcome. We herein present a case of both entities in patients presenting with history of a palpable peri-anal mass. We describe the radiological and histological features of aggressive angiomyxoma and cellular angiofibroma and highlight the similarities and differentiating factors between them.
