A 10-year-old child presented with asymptomatic, well-circumscribed nodule in the vulva. Excision biopsy showed features of classic Juvenile Xanthogranuloma (JXG) which is a rare benign disorder of non-langerhans' cell group of histiocytic proliferative diseases. The presentation of this lesion as vulval nodule is extremely rare and the extensive literature search revealed only handful of cases of vulval xanthogranuloma that too in an adult age group. The lesion is however prognostically favourable and should be kept in mind as one of the differential diagnosis of the vulval nodule.
一名10岁儿童在外阴出现无症状、边界清晰的结节。切除活检显示为典型幼年性黄色肉芽肿(JXG)的特征,这是一种罕见的非朗格汉斯细胞组织细胞增生性疾病的良性病症。这种病变表现为外阴结节极为罕见,广泛的文献检索仅发现少数外阴黄色肉芽肿病例,且均为成年年龄组。然而,该病变预后良好,应作为外阴结节的鉴别诊断之一予以考虑。
