A case of rectal angioleiomyoma in a 40 year-old female patient is described here. Six months earlier, the patient suffered from periodical prolapse of an oval tumor from the anus, along with difficulties in bowel movement. A transanal extirpation of the tumor was performed. This is the first reported case in the English literature of a patient presenting with prolapsed angioleiomyoma of the rectum. During the immediate postoperative period, as well as 6 mo later, the patient had an unremarkable postoperative recovery.展开更多

We report a case of laryngeal angioleiomyoma in a 52-year-old female. Case presentation: A 52- year-old Caucasian female was referred to our institute with a chief compliant of severe midnight snoring. Her symptoms were progressive and began from two years ago. There was no history of hoarseness and laryngeal pain. The patient underwent a laryngoscopic examination and a large mass was seen on the left aryepiglotic fold. Surface of lesion was smooth and covered by laryngeal mucosa with no ulcer. There was a rapid enhancing mass on left aryepiglotic fold with bulging into the left piriformis sinus in contrast-enhanced computed tomography. The tumor was complicated by profuse bleeding after biopsy which was not controlled by conventional approaches. The patient was then administered a general anesthesia and the tumor was completely removed via laryngosurgery accompanied by left superior thyroid artery ligation. The specimen was histopathologically compatible with laryngeal angioleiomyoma. Conclusion: Angioleiomyoma of larynx is of benign nature and rarely recurs. However, it can be complicated by profuse bleeding on biopsy and contrast-medium imaging should be considered before surgical intervention to diagnose the tumor properly and prevent life-threatening complications.展开更多

ALM arising in the sinonasal tract is rare, with fewer than 1% of cases presenting in this region. Only two cases localized to the sinuses have been reported to date in the literature. We report a case of a 30-year-old man complaining of a headache noted to have a concomitant lesion in the maxillary sinus. Histopathological examination following surgical resection confirmed a diagnosis of ALM. This report is the first known report of ALM limited to the maxillary sinus, and the first report to present the imaging data in the ALM in the sinus.展开更多

Histopathologic examination revealed that the tumor was full of vessels and it was composed of spindle cells with abundant cytoplasm. Immunohistochemical studies showed positive for SMA and Desmin and negative for S100 and HMB-45. Conclusions:Angioleiomyoma of the ciliary body is a rare tumor that can be successfully treated with local surgical resection in this area. It needs to be differentiated from other tumors, especially malignant melanoma. Eye Science 2004;20:19-22.展开更多
