Abstract

Angiomyofibroblastoma (AMF) is a rare benign tumor of the female genital tract. Three cases of AMF-like tumors of the male genital tract have been reported in the literature. We present the first documented case of an AMF-like soft tissue tumor of the male pelvis excised with robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery.
