  • Title: [A vulvar verruciform xanthoma].
    Author: Liddell C, Plantier F.
    Journal: Ann Pathol; 2022 Jan; 42(1):85-88. PubMed ID: 33478785.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of a vulvar verruciform xanthoma. Verruciform xanthoma is a rare benign lesion that occurs most commonly on the oral and genital mucosa. Under the microscope, this lesion displays acanthotic papillary epidermis with parakeratosis that extends deep into the epithelium, elongated rete ridges and xanthomatous cells in the papillary dermis. Vulvar lesions almost always occur in a local pathological context (lichen planus or sclerosus). It is important to be aware of this entity as it can mimic squamous carcinoma.
