Summary: | With the help of this case we summarize some crucial features to be picked up from history and examination before labeling
a case as Bartholin’s abscess or cyst. A 20-year old unmarried girl, deaf and mute since birth, was initially diagnosed to have Bartholin’s

well encapsulated. Histopathology ascertained the diagnosis of vulval leiomyoma. |
