Zusammenfassung:Aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare mesenchymal locally aggressive tumor arising in the pelvis and perineal region in females. On the other hand, extragenital AAMs are extremely rare, specifically in males. We are reporting male AAM which involves only axillary region along with its pathological features. To confirm it, immunohistochemistry (IHC) was done. In sum, pathological examination and IHC aid in distinguishing this lesion and help in differentiating it from other tumors of similar histology. Furthermore, it also aids in planning treatment.
