Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol. 1996 Jan;64(1):141-2. doi: 10.1016/0301-2115(95)02246-5.

Abstract

Although syringoma of the eyelids and the cheeks are well known and defined, vulvar syringoma is a rare clinical variant of this benign eccrine tumor. A case of syringoma of the vulva exacerbated during pregnancies with regression in the periods in between is presented. Histopathological examination showed typical features of syringomas. Only 20 patients with vulvar syringoma have been previously reported in the literature.
