Angiokeratoma of clitoris: a rare lesion in an adolescent girl.

Angiokeratoma is a benign vascular lesion. It is the result of dilation of ectatic subdermal vessels and congested capillaries. Weakness of the vessel walls, either from acquired or congenital reasons, can cause formation of the lesion. Angiokeratoma is more common in males, in whom it forms on the scrotal wall. An equivalent form can occur in females, generally on the vulva. The clitoris is an extremely rare location. We present the case of a 14-year-old girl with a clitoral angiokeratoma. To our knowledge, this is the first presented case of clitoral angiokeratoma in a child in English published reports.
