Giant fibroepithelial polyp of the perineum(): Giant fibroepithelial polyp
INTRODUCTION: Fibroepitheial polyps (FEP) are among the most common benign skin lesions and definitive histology is often needed to exclude malignancy.

description | INTRODUCTION: Fibroepitheial polyps (FEP) are among the most common benign skin lesions and definitive histology is often needed to exclude malignancy. These polyps are usually less than 5 cm in size and are often seen in genito-urinary sites including the perineum. A small number can reach a significant size. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 46-year-old female patient presented with a pedunculated mass measuring 18 cm in diameter, localized to the left perineum. The lesion was excised and the histopathological diagnosis was fibroepithelial polyp. CONCLUSION: We present this case as the third largest FEP recorded in the available literature. |
