    Abstract

    We report a case of vulvar syringoma suggesting milia. A 20-year-old pregnant woman visited the obstetrical department of our hospital for labor pain. On physical examination, the skin lesions were revealed accidently and showed symmetrically distributed, numerous, 2-4mm sized, yellow to skin colored papules on the vulva. The lesions developed in the fifth gestational month and were aggravated thereafter. After delivery, we performed a skin biopsy of the lesion. Histopathologic findings of the biopsy specimen showed the typical findings of syringoma and milia.
