- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 55-year-old woman who experienced vulvar itching associated with condyloma-like lesions. It notes that a clinical examination has confirmed the presence of diffuse induration with verrucous appearance of both labia major, with overlying papulovesicular lesions. It has been ruled out that the patient has indeed a vulvar lymphangiectasia caused by a large polymyomatous uterus wherein she was treated with carbon (CO2) dioxide laser ablation.
