Fibroadenoma: Common Neoplasm in an Uncommon Site

Abstract

Vulval fibroadenoma is an uncommon benign tumour that has been suggested to originate from ectopic breast tissue or mammary like anogenital glands. We report a case of a 26 years old woman who presented with a large, slow growing painless mass in vulvar region since 2 months with a clinical diagnosis of sebaceous cyst/ Inclusion epidermoid cyst. Excision was done and on histopathological examination it was reported as ectopic breast tissue with fibroadenoma and lactational change.
