Abstract

Fibroepithelial stromal polyps are mesenchymal lesions occurring typically in reproductive age women with a predilection for the vulvo-vaginal region. Malignancy may mimic this polyp in morphology, rendering further investigations including detailed histopathology mandatory. Histologically its characteristic features are stellate and multinucleate stromal cells identified near the epithelial-stromal interface. This case report discusses incidental finding of largest fibroepithelial polyp presented in a 31-year-old nulliparous woman. She was initially admitted with sepsis and detailed physical examination revealed a right-sided infected pedunculated labial mass measuring 20×21 cm. After initial resuscitation for sepsis, she was further investigated for the mass. Transabdominal ultrasound was essentially normal apart from a small fibroid 3×2 cm in the anterior wall of the uterus. The vulval mass was removed under local and regional anaesthesia and was confirmed to be a giant fibroepithelial stromal polyp on histopathology. The woman recovered well and was followed up until 1 year.
