    Angiomyofibroma of soft tissue (AFST) is a rare, benign neoplasm primarily found in extremities, with no prior cases reported in the small intestine.

  • 2

    The presented case involved a 43-year-old male with AFST causing intussusception, leading to surgical intervention and resection of the affected segment.

  • 3

    Histological examination revealed uniform spindle cells within a branching vascular network, consistent with the characteristics of AFST.

  • 4

    Immunohistochemical analysis showed tumor cells positive for CD68 and CD163, aiding in the diagnosis of AFST despite its nonspecific profile.

  • 5

    Complete surgical excision is recommended for AFST, as local recurrence may occur, but distant metastases have not been reported.
