Lipomas are the most common benign tumors of soft tissues. However, lipomas have rarely been reported as presenting in the vulva with few reports to date. We present a case of a vulvar lipoma in a 51-year-old woman, with a 3-month history of a huge left labial mass, which had recently increased in size to 15 cm possibly caused by chronic intermittent irritation. The patient was referred from a local clinic and was clinically thought to have Bartholin's glandular cyst. Transvaginal sonographic findings of the vulvar tumor depicted lobular structural soft-tissue features. A computed tomographic scan revealed that this mass contained adipose tissue. During the operation, a lipomatous tumor was found, which proved to be a lipoma according to the histologic examination. A simple excision was performed, and the histological examination revealed a thin capsule surrounding a lobular proliferation of lipocytes.
