Abstract:
:Epithelial inclusion cysts may be a late complication of traditional female genital surgery. We present the case of a 19-year-old Eritrean woman who had been circumcised at birth and sought treatment for an enlarging vulvar mass that arose after the onset of puberty. Symptoms included pain, pruritus, and interference with walking.
