Abstract
A 31-year-old woman presented for evaluation of multiple verrucous, coalescent papules on the vulva. A histopathological examination revealed acanthotic epidermis and cystic proteinaceous fluid-filled spaces in the papillary dermis. The clinical and histological features were compatible with lymphangioma circumscriptum of the vulva which rarely occur in this location. We describe a new case of LC with vulvar involvement.
