“…Cellular angiofi broma was fi rst described by Nucci et al 6 in 1997 as a distinctive benign soft tissue tumor of the vulva, distinguishable from AMF; their report was followed by a few case reports. [7][8][9][10][11] Later, AMF-like tumor and cellular angiofi broma were considered to be similar entities, and Iwasa and Fletcher 3 reported 51 cases of cellular angiofi broma, occurring in both sexes, including the entity AMF-like tumor.…”

Angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor (cellular angiofibroma) in the male inguinal region

Angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor is a rare mesenchymal tumor involving the male genital tract. We report a case of an angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor that arose in the subcutaneous tissue of the left inguinal region in a 50-year-old man. Ultrasonography of the region demonstrated a well-circumscribed subcutaneous mass. Intralesional fat was revealed on magnetic resonance images. Although these imaging features are nonspecific, radiological findings enable considering the diagnosis of angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor.

“…Some studies have identified positive expression of oestrogen and progesterone receptors in lesions from both females [3,9,10,12,14,15] and males [9,13,19], suggesting that hormonal influences may be implicated in the genesis of these neoplasms [16]. In this case, both oestrogen and progesterone receptors were negative.…”

Para-testicular cellular angiofibroma: a rare tumour in a male renal transplant patient

2006

Cellular angiofibroma is a rare, benign, mesenchymal neoplasm that should be distinguished from other more aggressive mesenchymal lesions. A 32-year-old male presented with a painless para-testicular mass. Pathological examination showed features characteristic of cellular angiofibroma. He had a history of renal transplantation and was on immunosuppressive drugs. The pathogenesis of cellular angiofibroma is largely undetermined. The role of immunosuppressive therapy in the genesis of this tumour awaits further analysis.

“…All of such described cases have a good clinical outcome; infiltration or metastatic changes have not been observed [8,11]. Only a single study reporting local recurrence six months after CAF excision has been published [12].…”

Cellular angiofibroma is a rare and benign tumour of mesenchymal origin. Within a microscopic image, two main cell populations are typically observed: spindle-shaped cells and blood vessels; both of which are sometimes accompanied by atypical liposarcoma-like cells. We present a case of a 31-year old male admitted to the Department of Urology because of a solid mass being present in the left testis. The patient underwent radical orchidectomy through the inguinal canal. Microscopic examination demonstrated an intratesticular cellular angiofibroma. During a two-year follow-up, there were no signs observed of any metastases nor disease recurrence. Intratesticular localisation of cellular angiofibroma has never been previously reported. Benign tumours of the testis are rare, but an awareness of this phenomenon may reduce the number of unnecessary orchidectomies, thereby increasing the rate of organ-sparing surgery.
