A Rare Case of a Giant Vulval Fibroepithelial Stromal Polyp.

BACKGROUND

A fibroepithelial stromal polyp is an uncommon benign pathology of the female genital tract. Rarely, these benign tumors present as a giant lesion and are clinically difficulty to distinguish from other pathologies.

CASE: A 19-year-old female presented with a vulval fibroepithelial stromal polyp measuring ∼8 × 8 × 3 cm that extended from the right labia majora. Present for 2 years, the lesion caused mild discomfort and aesthetic dissatisfaction due to its size but otherwise had no associated symptoms. It was diagnosed using a combination of imaging techniques including ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging and histological analysis. It was removed surgically and has had no recurrence.

SUMMARY AND

CONCLUSION

The consideration of both benign and malignant pathologies is paramount when differentiating vulval masses. Thorough clinical reasoning and appropriate use of imaging modalities and histological analysis are essential.
