Abstract
|
|
|
|
Aggressive Angiomyxoma(AAM) is a recently discovered locally infiltrative tumor that occurs almost exclusively in the pelvic and perineal regions of relatively young females. However, reports of AAM in males are rare. We report here on a rare case of a huge AAM(16x15x11cm, 3,150gm) that developed in the scrotum of a Korean man. Despite the histological benign nature of this tumor, performing wide excision and strict postoperative control are recommended because of the risk of tumor recurrence.
