description A 37-year-old woman presented with a right labium majus thickening with no palpable mass, which had been evolving for a few months. A partial right labium majus ablation was performed at the request of the patient for esthetic reasons. The lesion was most histologically similar to CALME (childhood asymmetric labium majus enlargement). The lesion was benign, but several other differential diagnoses were considered. Two years after the surgery, there had been no recurrence. To our best knowledge, this is the first such case reported in an adult.
