A Case of Verruciform Xanthoma of Labia in a Child

Purpose: Verruciform xanthoma (VX) is a rare, chronic, and benign lesion affecting the skin and mucous membranes. We reported a case of VX in the vulva of a female child. Patients and Methods: A 12 -year -old female had vulvar lesions for over 10 years without any discomfort. Physical examination revealed red lobulated patches on the left labia majora with a few scales attached to the surface. Histopathological examination indicated excessive and incomplete keratinization, hypertrophic spinous layer hyperplasia, neutrophil infiltration in the epidermis, and foam -like tissue could be seen in the dermal papilla. Lymphocyte -dominated inflammatory cell infiltration was scattered around the blood vessels. Immunohistochemical results showed positive CD68. Results: The final diagnosis confirmed the presence of VX. Conclusion: Surgical intervention proved successful in achieving favorable outcomes for the patient.
