Abstract
|
|
|
|
Acquired lymphangioma circumscriptum of the vulva is a rare benign disease that arises from obstruction of pelvic lymphatic drainage. It most commonly occurs due to surgery, lymphadenectomy and/or radiotherapy for cervical cancer and it may also result from treatment of other tumor or non-neoplastic diseases such as Crohn’s disease or tuberculosis. Epidermal reactive changes due to recurrent infections or stimuli occur in some cases and the vulva lesions can mimic condyloma acuminatum or other viral or fungal infections. Herein we describe a case of acquired lymphangioma circumscriptum of the vulva that mimicked condyloma acuminatum and this all presented 13 years after surgery for cervical cancer in a 71 year old woman.
