Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder, presenting with pruritis and hypopigmentation of the vulvar and anogenital skin. LS presenting as a peri-clitoral mass has not been previously described.
CASE: A 5-year-old patient with vulvar pruritis and ultrasound showing a homogenous mass was referred for suspected clitoromegaly with normal labs. Examination demonstrated a prepubertal patient with a mobile, soft, peri-clitoral mass and surrounding hypopigmentation consistent with LS. The cyst was excised surgically; pathology revealed an epidermal inclusion cyst. Postoperatively, she began using topical steroids for LS with symptom resolution.
CONCLUSION: Thorough workup of clitoromegaly negative for hormonal causes requires further investigation to determine an alternative etiology of the mass. We suspect that inflammatory changes of LS and pruritus resulted in the peri-clitoral inclusion cyst.
