Abstract

Angioleiomyoma is a solitary smooth muscle cell tumor that originates from the tunical media of arteries and veins. Its origin in the sacrum is rare, only one case has been recorded in the literature to date, but cases with bone destruction are even rarer. We present a 49-year-old woman with lumbosacral pain, unsteady gait and right lower extremity pain for two years, accompanied by radiation pain. Through plain film, Computerized tomography (CT) and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination, we diagnosed this case as giant sacral schwannoma(GSS). After an operation, it was pathologically confirmed as angioleiomyoma. The diagnosis of angioleiomyoma should not be based on imaging alone. It requires histopathological examination combined with immunostaining. It should be considered as one of the differential diagnosis of sacral tumors.
