In the surgical event, a tumor resection was performed, beginning an approach by the external part of the majors labia, respecting the urethral meatus and clitoris, an increase in vascularity was observed, dissecting the tumor in its entirety. The histopathological report was of cellular angiofibroma. The evolution of the patient was favorable.
