Lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is a benign disease
of the lymph ducts, usually manifest as small groups of
cutaneous vesiculopapular lesions, and may gradually
increase numbers and size to form gross lesions as in our
case (Fig. 1).
A 25-year-old married woman had itching and burning
sensation over vulva along with multiple vesicular lesions
for 1 month. Patient also had primary amenorrhoea and
history of vaginoplasty 3 years back. Local examination:
multiple small, colourless, vesicular lesions containing clear
fluid found over the labia majora. Histopathology (Figs. 2,
3) revealed features of LC. Vulvectomy was done. Immunohistochemistry
further confirmed the diagnosis. Patient is
improved and is in follow-up without any recurrence, and
she is doing well.
