Lipomas are common benign adipose tissue tumors but are infrequently found in the labia majora, especially at a large size. We report a case of a giant lipoma of the labia majora in a 37-year-old woman diagnosed by imaging methods and successfully treated by surgery. This case highlights the importance of considering lipoma in the differential diagnosis of labial masses and underscores the role of imaging in diagnosis. They need to be differentiated from liposarcoma or omental herniation into Nuck's canal. It also demonstrates the effectiveness of surgical management for large lipomas in sensitive areas, with attention to both medical and aesthetic outcomes.
