Abstract
Angiokeratoma of Fordyce, a localized form of angiokeratoma, is commonly found on the scrotum but rarely affects the vulva. We have documented a case of angiokeratoma of Fordyce in a female patient. She was treated with two sessions of CO2 laser ablation, following which her lesions resolved.
