Serous papillary cystadenofibroma of vulva: A histopathological surprise

INTRODUCTION: Serous Papillary Cystadenofibromas (SPCAFs) of the vulva is rare. CASE REPORT: We report a case of a 45-year-old female who presented with a painless slow growing mass in the genital region. Examination revealed a 10 × 8 cm swelling from the vulva. USG was suggestive of a complex cysti...

description INTRODUCTION: Serous Papillary Cystadenofibromas (SPCAFs) of the vulva is rare. CASE REPORT: We report a case of a 45-year-old female who presented with a painless slow growing mass in the genital region. Examination revealed a 10 × 8 cm swelling from the vulva. USG was suggestive of a complex cystic lesion and MRI showed a low signal intensity lesion on T2W image. She underwent wide local excision and the histopathology was suggestive of a SPCAF. DISCUSSION: Vulval tumors rare- account for 4 % of female genital tract tumors. Mainstay of treatment in cases of SPCAF is wide local excision. Histopathology confirms the diagnosis and is used to rule out malignant transformation. CONCLUSION: These represent uncommon tumors with high degree of heterogeneity which becomes a major challenge and systematic evaluation is crucial for clinical decision-making and patient management.
