Vulvar cancer is a rare tumor accounting for <5% of female genital tract tumors. The most common type vulvar malignancy squamous cell carcinoma. There are many histological variants carcinoma, keratinizing being the one. Sarcomatoid variant an extremely in vulva and comprises both epithelial mesenchymal features. Due to rarity this limited cases reported literature, no proper management guid...

Numerous skin diseases occurring in the pregnant patient have been reported. Some of these diseases are unique to pregnancy and some, including vulvar varicosities, vulvar edema, postpartum labial adhesions, and hematomas, are a result of physiological changes of pregnancy or the birth process. In addition, a variety of viral and bacterial infectious diseases of the vulva may occur during pregn...

Squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva occurs predominantly in the older age group. Although the incidence rate of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia is increasing, that of squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva is declining, reflecting earlier detection and more successful treatment. In addition to human papillomavirus infection, cigarette smoking is a putative risk factor for vulvar squamous cell c...

In the current report, we describe an intriguing case of a breast-like cancer lesion located in the vulvar region in a woman lacking a remarkable past medical or family history of breast cancer but with concurrent breast cancer. Consequently, a differential diagnosis between a primary synchronous breast and vulvar cancer or a metastatic breast carcinoma to the vulva is a key point in terms of t...

BACKGROUND p53 inactivation due to oncogenic viral proteins or mutations is an important molecular mechanism in carcinogenesis, which has also been demonstrated for vulvar carcinoma. To evaluate p53 changes in vulvar carcinogenesis, we analyzed p53 expression in vulvar carcinoma, vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN), lichen sclerosus (LS) and squamous cell hyperplasia (SH). PATIENTS AND MET...

Vulvar varicosities are generally not an indication for a caesarean section but in a rare case of severe vulvar varicosities, it would be a controversial issue whether to perform a caesarean section for fear they might rupture during a vaginal delivery. We present a case of huge vulvar varicosities during pregnancy. MRI revealed obstruction of the internal iliac system by the gravid uterus and ...

OBJECTIVE Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a necessary cause for cervical cancer, and it has been associated with vulvar and vaginal cancer and vulvar (VIN) and vaginal (VaIN) and anal (AIN) intraepithelial neoplasia. We assessed the prevalence of HPV (and the types) to estimate the possible effect of a HPV vaccine on lower genital tract disease prevention. METHODS Two hundred fifty-eight sample...

A 67-year-old woman who was presented to the gynecologist with a two-month history of heavy vaginal bleeding, after an excisional biopsy of vulvar mass, was diagnosed with the right colon adenocarcinoma metachronous metastasis to the vulva. Pathological examination preliminarily revealed by primary adenosquamous carcinoma of vulva. The original submitting pathologist and gynecologist were conta...

Vulvar cancer is an uncommon tumor and represents 3% 5% of all female genital tract malignancies. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most common carcinoma of the vulva. Distant metastasis of recurrent vulvar squamous cell carcinoma is rare and occurs late in the disease process. We report the first case of kidney metastasis from a vulvar squamous cell carcinoma in a 68-year-old Caucasian fema...

OBJECTIVE To demonstrate a unique case report about late and isolated vulvar metastasis of sigmoid adeno-carcinoma with review of the literature. MATERIAL-METHOD 57 year old postmenopausal patient with prior sigmoid colon cancer history was admitted with isolated vulvar mass. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and KRAS gen mutation analysis following surgery were performed to discriminate the metasta...
