Superficial myofibroblastoma (SMF) of the lower female genital tract is a relatively rare benign mesenchymal tumor. The diagnosis is usually challenging as it shares several similar clinicopathological features with other tumors. Herein, we present a case of a 71-year-old Chinese female patient with postmenopausal vaginal bleeding. Colposcopy imaging revealed a well-circumscribed mass in the vagina with a wide pedicle, resembling a mushroom. The patient underwent surgery, and the tumor was histologically diagnosed as SMF. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of colposcopic imaging of a superficial vaginal myofibroblastoma. In this case study, we review the clinicopathological features of SMF of the lower female genital tract reported in the literature to improve the understanding of the disease.
女性下生殖道浅表性肌成纤维细胞瘤(SMF)是一种相对罕见的良性间叶组织肿瘤。由于它与其他肿瘤具有一些相似的临床病理特征,其诊断通常具有挑战性。在此,我们报告一例71岁中国绝经后女性患者出现绝经后阴道出血的病例。阴道镜检查影像显示阴道内有一个边界清晰、带蒂较宽的肿物,类似蘑菇。患者接受了手术,肿瘤经组织学诊断为SMF。据我们所知,这是浅表性阴道肌成纤维细胞瘤阴道镜成像的首例报告。在本病例研究中,我们回顾了文献中报道的女性下生殖道SMF的临床病理特征,以增进对该疾病的认识。
