Abstract
BACKGROUND. Lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is a benign dilation of lymph channels localized to the skin and subcutaneous tissues. Primary vulvar involvement is very rare, with only 34 cases reported. CASE. A 17-year-old girl presented with pain and an 18-cm mass of the right labium majus that started 4 years earlier. She underwent wide local excision, and histological examination showed multiple dilated vascular channels in papillary dermis with a diagnosis of vulvar LC. CONCLUSION. Vulvar lymphangioma may mimic other vulvar tumors. Excision may be the best treatment of extensive vulvar LC. ©2007The American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology.
