Abstract
Pelvic tumors are quite common. Of these, angiofibromas are very rare. It is causes difficulties in differential diagnosis. But getting the right diagnosis is important, given the great similarity with other, often malignant tumors. According to the literature, the average size of angiofibromas does not exceed 12 cm. We present the case of a patient with an unusually large angiofibroma.
