Abstract

BACKGROUND: Tubular or vinous adenomas are common neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract. Other locations where these adenomas are found, including the female genital tract, are very rare. A literature review documents that only eight cases of tubular or vinous adenomas found within the vagina have been published.
