Condylomata acuminata‐like lesions of the vulvae were observed in a 28‐year‐old woman. They were located on the interior borders of the labia minora and were filiform, smooth, flesh‐coloured and asymptomatic. Histologically, these lesions showed a rich vascular network surrounded by connective tissue. They appear to be identical to hirsutoid papillomas of the glans penis, as they share the same embryological location. To our knowledge, this is the first report of condylomata acuminata‐like lesions of the labia minora in Japan.
