Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 64
Abstract
A 40-year-old female presented with a slow-growing mass on the left labia majora, since three years. Local examination showed a well-circumscribed pedunculated polypoidal mass measuring 15 cm × 10 cm. The mass was non-tender and firm in consistency. The inguinal lymph nodes were not enlarged. Her blood investigations and sonography of the abdomen revealed no abnormality. Sonography of the local part showed a large mass with peripheral vascularity, heterogeneous hyperechoic areas, thick echoes and non-vascular areas in the centre. There was a cystic area of size 2.8 × 2.2 near the stalk. Fine needle aspiration cytology smears revealed only blood without cellular elements. Patient was planned for excision biopsy and all routine investigations were within normal limits [Figure 1].
