Vulvar lipoma

Introduction to vulvar lipoma Vulyarlipoma is a benign tumor composed of mature adipocytes. It usually occurs in the labia majora and bulges under its skin. Most of them are pedunculated, soft and lobulated. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.008% Susceptible people: women Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: lipoma

The cause of vulvar lipoma

(1) Causes of the disease

Vulvar lipoma is derived from the labia majora or pubic fat tissue and is associated with disorders of lipid metabolism.

(two) pathogenesis

The vulvar lipoma is located under the labia majora. The tumors vary in size and are generally small in size. Most of them are small polyps. They are also reported to have a diameter of 17 cm. Usually, the tumor base is wide, soft, round, sometimes lobulated, and tumor. Clearly demarcated from the surrounding tissue, there is a capsule, the cut surface is yellow, the same as normal fat tissue.

Microscopically, the tumor consists of mature adipocytes, often without obvious connective tissue envelope. There are fibrous connective tissue lines interspersed between the tumor cells. The cut surface is yellow, which is the same as general fat tissue, and there are many different fibrous tissues in the interstitial. Blood vessels, when fibrous tissue predominates, are called fibroids; if there is capillary proliferation in the tumor, it is called angiolipoma.

Vulvar lipoma prevention

1. Actively prevent and treat lipid metabolism disorders. Because of the disorder of lipid metabolism, it is generally related to the diet being too greasy and the calories are too high, and may also be related to heredity. Therefore, in terms of prevention, diet control is very important.

2, it is recommended to eat more vitamins-rich fresh fruits and vegetables, light low-salt diet, more steamed stew and other cooking methods, especially control meat (especially fat) and other foods that can cause elevated blood lipids in the body .

Vulvar lipoma complications Complications

Other parts of the body are complicated by lipoma.

Symptoms of vulvar lipoma Common symptoms Tumor hard and hard sex

Vulvar lipoma occurs in the subcutaneous fat tissue of the labia majora and pubic lice. It has no pain. When the tumor is small, there is generally no discomfort. When the tumor is large, it is difficult to walk and have difficulty in sexual life.

Examination of vulvar lipoma

Blood biochemical examination.

Histopathological examination.

Diagnosis and differentiation of vulvar lipoma

diagnosis

Vulvar lipoma is located in the subcutaneous fat, soft texture, according to the clinical manifestations of general diagnosis without difficulty, can be combined with pathological examination can make a diagnosis.

Differential diagnosis

1. When the tumor grows rapidly, it needs to be differentiated from liposarcoma.

2. Differentiated from vulvar nerve fibroma, both of which are soft masses, which can be identified by pathological examination.

3. Should pay attention to the identification of the skin.
