Vulvar abscesses are mass-forming and infectious lesions that occur in the external genital organs of women. The abscess may affect larger areas and progress to more complicated stages due to factors such as the patient’s hygiene, immunosupressive reasons, and additional medical conditions. Management of vulvar area abscesses typically requires a multidisciplinary approach, primarily involving gynecology. In this case presentation, we aim to present a case of sepsis secondary to vulvar abscess in 62-year-old morbidly obese patient with additional medical conditions, who was deemed inoperable.
