In 2006, a 36-year-old Burmese woman presented with prolonged vaginal bleeding. She had under- gone pelvic examination that disclosed pedunculated polypoid vaginal mass. It originated from the posterior vaginal wall. Local excision was done, resulting in good condition. Pathological diagnosis was angiomyofibroblastoma. Angiomyofibroblastoma is a rare, benign non-recurring lesion, mesenchymal tumor occurring mainly in the vulval region of premenopausal women and local excision with clear margins is an adequate treatment.
