Paratesticular Angiomyofibroblastoma-Like Tumor: Unusual Case of a Solidocystic Form

Massive angiomyofibroblastoma of the glans penis

Male genital tract angiomyofibroblastoma (AMF) is a rare benign tumour, with a total of 34 cases reported in literature. We are presenting a case of AMF of the glans penis in a 68-year-old man who presented with a progressively increasing in size large lesion located on the tip of his penis. Following routine investigations, the lesion was surgically excised with no adjuvant treatment, the patient was followed-up for 5 years with no evidence of local, nodal or distant recurrence. As AMF of the glans penis is extremely rare, there is not enough literature to support management guide lines, but it appears that AMF responds very well to complete surgical excision; occasional cases of recurrence have been previously reported, so a long-term follow-up is advised.

Spermatic cord paratesticular tumor: a rare case report

Paratesticular tumors account for 5% of tumors originating in the scrotum. Angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor is a rare benign mesenchymal soft tissue tumor found in the genital region in both sexes and is even rarer in the spermatic cord. The origin of this tumor remains the object of speculation, but it is believed to originate from perivascular mesenchymal cells. The purpose of the present case report is to expand knowledge on the histology of this rare paratesticular tumor.
