ABSTRACT
Abstract Cellular angiofibroma (CA)is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor. In women, it occurs mainly in the vulvovaginal region, with vulvar location in 70% of the cases. Its clinical presentation is nonspecific and similar to several other vulvar tumors of different cellular origins. Thus, its histological and immunohistochemical features allow distinction fromother tumors. Cellular angiofibromas have good prognosis, despite some risk of relapse. The authors present the case of a 49-year-old woman with a bulky right vulvar lesion, for which the preoperative diagnosis was a Bartholin cyst, but the histological and immunohistochemical evaluation yielded a CA.
RESUMO
Resumo O angiofibroma celular é um tumor mesenquimatoso benigno e raro. Nasmulheres, surge principalmente na região vulvo-vaginal, com localização vulvar em 70% dos casos. A sua apresentação clínica é inespecífica e semelhante a vários outros tumores vulvares de diferentes origens celulares. Assim, são as suas características histológicas e imunohistoquímicas que permitem a diferenciação entre eles. Os angiofibromas celulares têm bom prognóstico,embora apresentemalgumrisco de recidiva. Os autores apresentamo caso de umamulher de 49 anos de idade comuma lesão vulvar direita volumosa, cujo diagnóstico pré-operatório era de quisto da glândula de Bartholin, mas cujo exame histológico e imunohistoquímico revelaram tratar-se de um angiofibroma celular.
