Epidermolytic acanthoma (EA) is a rare benign acquired tumor that most commonly presents as a solitary lesion on the trunk, extremities, male genitalia, and face with a male predominance. Cases occurring on the female genitalia have rarely been reported. We describe the case of multiple localized EAs occurring on the vulva of a 31-year-old woman presenting with the chief complaint of vulvar pruritus. Although rare to occur in the vulvar area, EAs should be included in the differential diagnosis of multiple vulvar papules.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
