Abstract
Hemangiopericytoma is a rare vascular tumor that is believed to arise
from the pericyte of Zimmermann. Approximately 10% of cases occur in c
hildren and a third are congenital. To our knowledge we report the fir
st case of a congenital hemangiopericytoma arising from the clitoris,
describe its management and review the literature.
