Angiomyxoma diagnosed in a man presenting for abdominal lipectomy

Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare tumour that is locally infiltrative but nonmetastasizing. It occurs nearly exclusively in adult women of childbearing age and almost always arises in the perineum and pelvic area. A case of angiomyxoma occurring in a middle-aged, morbidly obese man is reported. The clinical presentation was one of progressing scrotal edema and enlargement with subsequent development of scrotal abscesses, requiring several incisions and drainages as well as oral and intravenous antibiotics. His symptoms and body habitus left him in a significantly debilitated state, prompting him to seek treatment for his conditions. He initially presented for abdominal lipectomy. However, due to the chronic scrotal infections and enlargement, scrotectomy was recommended before any other surgical procedures. A scrotectomy was performed by the urology service. Pathological diagnosis of the excised tumour was an aggressive angiomyxoma. Given the rarity of this tumour, especially in males, the proper diagnosis and treatment of angiomyxoma is still being investigated. With this in mind, the physical signs and symptoms that characterize this condition are presented and treatment options are reviewed.
