الوصف: Keloids are caused by an imbalance between collagen matrix decomposition and production during wound repair. Spontaneous keloids are a rare type of keloid that arise without a significant history of trauma or surgery. We herein report a case involving a 59-year-old woman with symmetric neoplasms at the bilateral labia majora that had persisted for about 3 years and a >10-year history of pruritus and pain at the bilateral labia majora with folliculitis. The bilateral labia majora gradually swelled and lost their normal physiological morphology. The patient was diagnosed with keloids. Under general anesthesia, the keloids were resected. The right incision was sutured directly and the left was closed using an inguinal flap. Adjuvant radiotherapy was administered after the surgery. No recurrence of the keloids was observed at the 1-year follow-up, and the patient was satisfied with the appearance of the vulvar region. This is the first report of spontaneous symmetrical giant keloids at the bilateral labia majora, and it emphasizes the importance of the effect of abnormal inflammation on keloid formation. Repairing genital defects using an inguinal flap has only a minor effect on the patient’s postoperative movement, and an ideal vulvar appearance can be achieved.
