Post-traumatic vulvar endometriosis.
We report a case of vulvar endometriosis presenting as a vulvar mass following trauma in a 12 years old, 3 months post-menarcheal girl. The presumptive etiology is the direct implantation of endometrial cells. Painful swelling of the vulvar mass appeared gradually during menses. Excision of suspected vulvar endometriosis is suggested as the definite treatment.
