Cellular angiofibroma (CAF) is benign mesenchymal tumour primarily affecting vulvovaginal region in women. Often they are asymptomatic with small size, but rarely these tumours may grow significantly necessitating differentiation from aggressive malignant growth. This is a case report of primigravida mother who was in her early 30s, who present to our setting in near-term gestation with approximately 10 cm pedunculated mass arising from labia minora. Following a caesarean section and surgical excision, histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of CAF. This case highlights the importance of recognising this entity in pregnant patients to ensure appropriate surgical management and a favourable prognosis. CONCLUSION: This is a rare case recorded involving the labia minora in a pregnant patient, which has grown to such an extent making patient symptomatic making her to walk with difficulty.
