Vaginal fibroepithelial polyps are rare, benign growths that can mimic malignant tumors. Early consideration in newborns and prepubertal girls with interlabial masses is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Vaginal fibroepithelial polyps are uncommon benign tumors.
  • These lesions can be misdiagnosed as malignant connective tissue tumors.
  • Simple excision is the standard treatment with a low recurrence rate.

Observation:

  • A case of vaginal fibroepithelial polyp in a newborn is presented.
  • The lesion was located as an interlabial mass.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the benign nature of the polyp.

Findings:

  • Vaginal fibroepithelial polyps, though rare, should be included in the differential diagnosis of interlabial masses in infants and children.
  • The benign nature of the polyp was confirmed.
  • Successful surgical excision was performed.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering rare benign conditions in pediatric interlabial masses.
  • Accurate diagnosis prevents unnecessary aggressive treatment for malignant conditions.
  • Awareness among clinicians can improve timely management of vaginal fibroepithelial polyps in young patients.
