Abstract

Fibroepithelial polyps (FEPs) on the vulvovaginal region are rare lesions of the lower genital track and differential diagnosis can be wide. When faced with FEPs, gynecologists and pathologists have to consider a wide range of diagnoses, because overlapping morphologic features and management of these lesions has been observed. We report a case of fibroepithelial polyps that developed on an unusual genital site, and provide a brief review of the literature.
