Vulvar lipoma is said to be so rare that only a few cases have been reported. We present two cases of vulvar lipoma that were diagnosed within six months in our centre in a 28 year-old para 2 and 35 year-old para 1 woman both of whom presented with slow-growing masses in the vulva. A detailed discussion of the clinical features and current management options are outlined, with emphasis on the need to subject all excised lesions to histopathological evaluation; to ensure accurate diagnosis and differentiate this benign swelling from cystic swellings and malignant neoplasms in the vulva.
外阴脂肪瘤据说极为罕见，仅有少数病例被报道。我们报告两例外阴脂肪瘤病例，在我们中心，一名28岁经产2次的妇女和一名35岁经产1次的妇女在6个月内被诊断出患有此病，她们均表现为外阴部缓慢生长的肿块。本文概述了其临床特征及当前的治疗选择，并着重强调对所有切除病变进行组织病理学评估的必要性，以确保准确诊断，并将这种良性肿物与外阴部的囊性肿物及恶性肿瘤区分开来。
