Recurrent cauliflower-like vulva edema in two consecutive pregnancies

Abstract

Vulvar edema (VE) is a rare condition that may occur in either pregnant or nonpregnant women. A methodical approach through historical and physical examination is fundamental to diagnose the underlying etiology, but some patients may require further biological and radiological assessments. Recurrence of VE in successive pregnancies is a peculiar condition and has not yet been described in the literature. We report a case of an isolated VE reoccurring in two successive pregnancies with a particular cauliflower-like appearance.
