They are common, usually small and hystologically benign. Larger lesions are rare and likely arise from proliferation of mesenchymal cells within the hormonally sensitive subepithelial stromal layer of the lower genital tract. We present a case of 16 year old female with a giant polypoid lesion of the vulva localized on the right labium. The mass measure was 18\u00d712\u00d73 cm. Total surgical resection of the lesion was performed. Histopathological examination reported a fibroepithelial stromal polyp of the vulva. The patient showed no evidence of recurrence four years after the resection. Fibroepithelial polyps of the vulvar region are benign lesions that have a wide range of morphologic appearances and may be misinterpreted as malignant. Total excision is the best treatment options and histopathological examination is strongly recommended to rule out a malignant neoplasm.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2478\/prilozi-2018-0051","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,9]],"date-time":"2019-01-09T04:03:06Z","timestamp":1547006586000},"page":"127-130","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Giant Fibroepithelial Polyp of Vulva: A Case Report and Review of Literature"],"prefix":"10.2478","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Meral","family":"Rexhepi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics , Clinical Hospital , Tetovo , Republic of Macedonia"},{"name":"Faculty of Medical Sciences , University of Tetovo , Republic of Macedonia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elizabeta","family":"Trajkovska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology , Clinical Hospital , Tetovo , Republic of Macedonia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Florin","family":"Besimi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics , Clinical Hospital , Tetovo , Republic of Macedonia"},{"name":"Faculty of Medical Sciences , University of Tetovo , Republic of Macedonia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nagip","family":"Rufati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics , Clinical Hospital , Tetovo , Republic of Macedonia"},{"name":"Faculty of Medical Sciences , University of Tetovo , Republic of Macedonia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,12,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026071214581710526_j_prilozi-2018-0051_ref_001_w2aab3b7c15b1b6b1ab1ab1Aa","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"1.
