description Giant cervical polyps are rarely seen nowadays in routine day-to-day practice and are defined as a polyp with a size >4 cm. Giant cervical polyps protruding outside the vaginal canal causing diagnostic dilemma are rarely encountered in gynecologic practice. They masquerade as uterine inversion, prolapse, or cervical malignancy. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature. We hereby report a case of giant polyp of anterior lip of the cervix occurring in a multiparous woman and presented with something coming out per vagina. Histopathology of it came out to be angiomyomatous polyp (vascular leiomyoma) of the cervix that itself is a rare entity.
