Angiomyxofibroma of vulva is rare and unique, known for local recurrence. It is a mesenchymal tumour. It is common in women with reproductive age group. Its occurrence in the genital region is a cause for delayed consultation and social stigma. Clinically examination showed it was arising from vulva.
