| Sumario: | Introduction: Plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor is a rare clinical condition, with about 150 cases described in the literature. Case report: 23-yearsold, female patient with nodular lesion in vulva without malignancy characteristics on ultrasound image. She underwent clinical follow-up and after an increase in the size of the lesion, surgical resection was opted. Histopathological findings suggested plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor, with free surgical margins. In follow up, she was referred to oncological evaluation for screening complementary exams and rule out morphologically similar diagnoses. After the complementary exams confirming the initial diagnosis of plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor and without evidence of metastatic disease after complete surgical excision with free margins, the patient is in clinical follow-up. Conclusion: Reporting the case is extremely important to disseminate the clinical presentation, diagnostic steps, proposed treatment and share information about the clinical evolution presented. |
