Vulvar Leiomyoma Masquerading as Bartholin Cyst: A Case Report of Unveiled Diagnosis and Surgical Management.
Curēus 2023 October
Vulvar leiomyomas are rare benign tumors originating from smooth muscle cells of the vulvar tissue. We present the case of a 44-year-old female patient complaining of a painless vulval mass for 12 years, gradually increasing from 1x1 cm to 5x4 cm. Clinical assessment initially suggested a Bartholin cyst because of its non-tender and non-fluctuant nature. However, surgical intervention revealed an unexpected diagnosis of vulvar leiomyoma, measuring 5x5x4 cm. The patient underwent successful excision and repair under spinal anesthesia. This case underscores the significance of meticulous clinical evaluation and accurate histopathological examination in distinguishing vulvar masses. Accurate diagnosis guides appropriate management, and long-term follow-up prevents complications and recurrence. This report highlights the diagnostic challenges of rare vulvar lesions and the importance of a comprehensive approach to their evaluation and treatment.
