Abstract:
Prepubertal vulval fibroma is a very rare tumor arising at vulva. Iwasa firstly reported 11 cases of prepubertal vulva fibroma in 2004 and until recently no case was reported in literature. A 8-year-old girl complained the painless growing mass at the left labium major. The mass was excised and confirmed as prepubertal vulval fibroma by immunohistochemistry. We report the first case of prepubertal vulva fibroma in a 8-year-old Korean female with a brief review of the literature.
