Vulvar fibroma

Introduction to vulvar fibroma Vulvar fibroma is a benign tumor derived from the connective tissue of the vulva. The tumor is usually pedicled, small or medium in size, and occasionally grows large. The tumor is often single, spherical or oval, with surface lobes. Smooth, hard; if degenerative changes occur, the tumor can be soft. basic knowledge The proportion of sickness: 0.01% Susceptible people: women Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: vulvar tumor

Causes of vulvar fibroids

Cause:

Vulvar fibroids generally originate from the deep fibrous tissue of the perineum or round ligament, which is formed by fibroblast proliferation.

Pathogenesis

Under the microscope of vulvar fibroma, the parallel fiber cords are wavy or intertwined. They are composed of mature fibroblasts and collagen fibers. They are bundle-like braided, and the nucleus is fusiform. In some places, mucus-like degeneration can be seen. There is no split image, the envelope is fibrous connective tissue, the surface is irregular, smooth and hard, and the cut surface is dense gray-white fibrous tissue. It is arranged in a bundle of criss-cross or spiral, and the interstitial is generally denser and more collagen fibers. That is, the fibroid cut surface is dense, hard and grayish white fiber structure.

Vulvar fibroma prevention

Early detection, early surgical treatment.

1, regular physical examination: to achieve early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment.

2, do a good job: to prevent malignant transformation.

3, pay attention to personal hygiene, especially the health of the genitals during menstruation and puerperium.

4, enhance physical fitness, improve their own immunity: pay attention to work and rest, more to participate in physical exercise, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins.

5, in daily life should pay attention to reasonable nutrition, food as much as possible to diversify, eat high protein, multi-vitamins, low animal fat, digestible foods and fresh fruits, vegetables, do not eat stale or irritating things, less Eat smoked, roasted, marinated, fried, salty foods, staple foods and coarse grains to ensure nutritional balance.

Vulvar fibroma complications Complications vulvar tumor

Larger fibroids often have ulcers, hemorrhage and exudate on the surface. After the tumor surface collapses, it can be infected.

Symptoms of vulvar fibroids Common symptoms Sexual intercourse difficulty dysuria

Most of the vulvar fibroids occur in the labia majora, which occurs in the labia minora. The clitoris and round ligaments are less, the growth is slow, generally asymptomatic, occasionally due to friction, the surface may have ulcers, and the symptoms of falling and pain may appear. To the size of cherries, the diameter is 0.6 ~ 8cm, smooth and hard pedicled mites, the surface has grooves, the color is like normal skin or pale yellow, often single hair, individual can grow very large, foreign literature reports have reached 268 pounds, spherical or oval, can be cystic when the local blood circulation disorder, soft texture, such as tumor is too large, may be associated with dysuria and sexual intercourse difficulties.

Examination of vulvar fibroids

Tumor marker examination, secretion examination.

Histopathological examination.

Diagnosis and diagnosis of vulvar fibroma

diagnosis

The diagnosis of vulvar fibroids is generally not difficult. According to clinical manifestations, laboratory tests can confirm the diagnosis. If the tumor develops rapidly and the surface is ruptured, a biopsy should be made to confirm the diagnosis.

Differential diagnosis

1. It is differentiated from vulvar skin and inguinal round ligament fibroids, and pathological examination can confirm the diagnosis.

2. Different from the vulvar nerve fibroma, the tumor is pedicled, the quality is soft, and the tumor tissue is composed of nerve sheath cells.
