    Area of Science:

    • Gynecologic Oncology
    • Surgical Pathology
    • Dermatopathology

    Background:

    • Vulvar tumors are uncommon, with liposarcoma being an extremely rare diagnosis.
    • Differentiating benign vulvar conditions from malignancy requires careful clinical and pathological assessment.

    Observation:

    • A 60-year-old woman presented with a slowly growing vulvar mass, initially suspected to be a Bartholin's gland cyst.
    • Surgical exploration revealed a solid, encapsulated tumor in the left labium majus.

    Findings:

    • Histological examination confirmed the tumor as a mostly well-differentiated liposarcoma.
    • The patient experienced no local or distant recurrence 10 months after surgical resection.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of thorough histopathological evaluation for rare vulvar neoplasms.
    • Complete surgical excision appears to be an effective treatment for localized vulvar liposarcoma.
