    Superficial cervicovaginal myofibroblastoma (SCVM) is a rare benign tumor affecting women aged 20–60 years, often misdiagnosed due to overlapping features with other tumors.

  • 2

    Two cases of SCVM were reported, one presenting with vaginal bleeding and the other found incidentally, both diagnosed through histopathological and immunohistochemical evaluation.

  • 3

    Surgical resection of SCVM is the primary treatment, leading to a favorable prognosis with no recurrence observed during follow-up periods of 6 months to 1 year.

  • 4

    Literature review identified 78 cases of SCVM, highlighting its slow growth, benign behavior, and hormone-related characteristics, particularly sensitivity to estrogen.

  • 5

    Accurate diagnosis of SCVM relies on comprehensive assessment of morphological and immunohistochemical features to differentiate it from other mesenchymal tumors.
