ABSTRACT
Fibroepithelialpolyps (FEP) of vulva are rarely observed soft tissue tumors. They are generally 1-2 cm in size and rarely exceed this. Here we report a surgically treated case of a giant pedunculated polypoid lesion of the vulva which was measured 11 cm in its largest diameter in a 21 years old nulliparous woman. Total surgical excision of the mass was performed and no recurrence was detected 24 months after the initial treatment. Owing to its wide range of morphological appearances it can be misinterpreted as malignant. While it seems total excision is the best treatment options to provide a permanent cure, to rule out a malignant neoplasm histopathological examination is strongly recommended.
ÖZET
Fibroepitelyal polipler (FEP) nadir görülen yumuşak doku tümörleridir. Bu tümörlerin boyutu genellikle 1-2 cm'dir ve nadiren bu boyutu aşarlar. Burada, 21 yaşındaki nullipar hastada cerrahi olarak tedavi ettiğimiz en büyük çapı 11 cm ölçülen vulvar saplı FEP olgusunu sunduk. Kitle total eksize edildi ve bu tedaviden sonraki 24 aylık takiplerinde rekürrens gözlenmedi. Morfolojik özelliklerine göre çok geniş yelpazede olan vulvar lezyonlar malign olarak yanlış yorumlanabilir. Total eksizyon kalıcı kür sağlayan en iyi tedavi seçeneği gibi görünmekle birlikte, malignensiyi dışlamak için mutlaka histopa-olojik inceleme de yapılmalıdır.
