Cellular Angiofibroma (CAF) is a rare and benign neoplasm with a good prognosis. Diagnosis of CAF can be challenging due to its nonspecific clinical and radiological features, which can often lead to a misdiagnosis, as in our case of a 77-year-old male. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry play a crucial role in identifying CAF and differentiating it from malignant tumors. Although not many cases of recurrence have been reported, long-term follow-up should still be considered.
细胞性血管纤维瘤(CAF)是一种罕见的良性肿瘤,预后良好。由于其非特异性的临床和影像学特征,CAF的诊断可能具有挑战性,这常常导致误诊,就像我们这位77岁男性患者的病例一样。组织病理学和免疫组织化学在识别CAF并将其与恶性肿瘤区分开来方面起着关键作用。尽管报道的复发病例不多,但仍应考虑进行长期随访。
