ANGIOMYOFIBROBLASTOMA OF THE UTERINE CERVIX IN A BREAST CANCER PATIENT: A CASE REPORT

Angiomyofi broblastoma (AMFB) is a rare mesenchymal tumor mostly involving the female lower genital tract. Although a large number of cases of vulva and vagina has been reported, a report on a case of the uterine cervix is uncommon. Despite unknown pathogenesis of AMFB, positive immunoreactivity for hormonal receptor of AMFB allows to make an assumption that the hormonal stimuli may have a role on the development of AMFB. Therefore, it is potential that estrogenic effect of tamoxifen gives stimuli on hormonally responsible mesenchymal cells, resulting in AMFB. We report a case of AMFB of the uterine cervix in a breast cancer patient with prolonged tamoxifen treatment with brief literature review. KCI Citation Count: 0
