摘要

Vulval vestibular papillomatosis (VVP) is a benign condition of the vulva often confused with warts by both gynaecologists and dermatologists. Owing to its uncommon prevalence it is mistaken for warts and treated with podophyllum or trichloroacetic acid. We present one such case where the patient had growth of the VVP due to repeated mismanagement. She underwent wide local excision followed by bilateral V–Y plasty to achieve a tension-free primary repair of the defect. She recovered uneventfully. We would like to highlight this "rare" clinical entity to avoid unnecessary investigations and discomfort to patients. The histology is also described in detail with specific mention of the specifics of the V–Y plasty reconstruction.
