Abstract
- 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.<br />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.<br />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.<br /> (Copyright © 2022. Published by Elsevier Inc.)
