Abstract

We report a 25-year-old unmarried girl who developed multiple papular lesions on both labia majora with the past history of documented HPV-6 viral infection in the vulva. A wide local excision was performed and histopathological report confirmed a case of angiokeratoma. To the best of our knowledge this is the first case of angiokeratoma of vulva following chronic HPV infection.
