Raj AmarnaniAthur HarikrishnanPublished in: International journal of colorectal disease (2019)
This paper aims to highlight a rare differential diagnosis for an anal mass. An aneurysmal BFH most often presents as a painless mass within the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. As such, this case presents a diagnostic challenge to both colorectal surgeon and histopathologist due to its low incidence and unusual location. We further present the clinical and radiographic evidence to confirm the diagnosis. Additionally, we discuss the literature pertaining to this condition and its optimal management.
