摘要
BACKGROUND: Neuroma of the vulva is a rare pathologic condition. Only 2 case reports on it exist. CASE: We report the first case of traumatic neuroma of the episiotomy site in the English-language literature in a patient who presented with superficial dyspareunia. The neuroma was successfully managed by excision. CONCLUSION: It is questionable whether the paucity of cases in the medical literature is due to true rarity, underreporting or underdiagnosis. It is therefore extremely important to address the extent of the problem in vulvar pain syndromes by including this condition in the differential diagnosis.
