Abstract

BACKGROUND: Extraabdominal desmoid tumors are very rare; primary vulvar desmoid tumors are even rarer. CASE: A desmoid tumor involving the right labium majus, extending upward along the vaginal wall, was excised completely. CONCLUSION: These rare tumors, which may enlarge rapidly during pregnancy, are difficult to diagnose before surgery.
