Unveiling the Truth: Fibroepithelial Polyp of the Vulva and Its Misdiagnosis as Cancer

Fibroepithelial polyps (FEPs) are peculiar benign lesions that typically present as painless, pedunculated growths in various regions of the body, including the lower female genital tract. We discuss a case of a 45-year-old menopausal female who presented with an FEP in her vulva. The patient reported noticing a painless growth in her vulvar region for the past seven years, which had gradually increased in size. Clinical examination revealed a polypoidal, pedunculated, fleshy mass measuring approximately 11x8x7 cm in diameter. The lesion was excised under anesthesia, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of FEP. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and showed no evidence of recurrence.
