She presented with a large vulval swelling involving labia majora, minora and the clitoris preventing her from having sexual intercourse.

Because of the large size, simple vulvectomy was performed and she recovered well postoperatively. Literature on vulval neurofibroma regarding the presentation and management was revieved.
