Superficial myofibroblastoma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor that presents a challenge in accurate preoperative diagnosis because of its overlapping radiological and histological features. A 27-year-old woman presented with a history of increasing abdominal girth over the prior year and pelvic mass for 1 month. Imaging confirmed the presence of a giant well-circumscribed cystic-solid tumor involving both the extraperitoneal pelvis and vagina. After exploration and excision, superficial vaginal myofibroblastoma was diagnosed pathologically. The patient underwent surgical excision and had no postoperative complications at the 1-month follow-up. Imaging features and clinical reasoning can aid in differentiating superficial myofibroblastoma from more aggressive entities or malignant tumors and guide suitable and appropriate surgical approaches.
浅表性肌成纤维细胞瘤是一种罕见的良性间叶组织肿瘤,因其影像学和组织学特征重叠,术前准确诊断具有挑战性。一名27岁女性,有过去一年腹围增加及盆腔肿块1个月的病史。影像学检查证实存在一个巨大的边界清晰的囊实性肿瘤,累及腹膜外盆腔和阴道。经探查和切除后,病理诊断为浅表性阴道肌成纤维细胞瘤。患者接受了手术切除,术后1个月随访无并发症。影像学特征和临床推理有助于将浅表性肌成纤维细胞瘤与更具侵袭性的实体或恶性肿瘤区分开来,并指导合适恰当的手术方法。
