A case of female genital tract fibroepithelial polyps containing atypical stromal cells arising from the vulva is described.Fibroepithelial stromal polyps of the vulvavaginal lesion are benign lesions that, when bland or hypocellular, are readily recognized. The tumor was multipl and the highest one measured 4 centimeter in diameter. Cytologic atypia has been a previously recognized feature in these lesions; however fibroepithelial polyps with stromal atypia are an uncommon tumor of the vulva, are rarely bilateral and combination of these features has only rarely been documented. These tumors must be differentiated from sarcoma botryoides, which resemble both grossly and microscopically.
