Epithelioid leiomyoma of the vulva.
An ultrastructural and light-microscopic study of the second published case of epithelioid leiomyoma of the vulva is reported. The tumor occurred in the right labium minus of a 26-year-old nonpregnant female. Optic microscopy revealed a clear cell neoplasm with a marked relationship to arterial vessels from which it may originate. The ultrastructure was analogous to that of similar cases reported in the uterus and stomach.
