Unfortunately, morbidity mostly related to inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy, is common. The present review discusses innovations in the management of vulvar disease with attempts to reduce attendant morbidity.

Carcinoma of the vulva is an uncommon tumor, representing about 4%–5% of gynecological malignancies. About 90% of cases are squamous cell carcinomas, with melanomas, adenocarcinomas, basal cell carcinomas, and sarcomas also occurring. This chapter will limit discussion to squamous cell carcinomas.

Concurrent radiation and chemotherapy in vulvar carcinoma [PDF]
Gynecologic Oncology, 1989 Between June 1984 and February 1988 the role of radiation with concurrent infusional 5-fluorouracil with or without mitomycin C (CT-RT) was examined in 33 patients with vulvar cancer. The median duration of follow-up is 16 months (range 5 to 45 months). Nine received adjuvant postsurgical CT-RT and none has relapsed in the radiation field.

Dermatologic Surgery, 1997
Vulvar basal cell carcinoma is a rare neoplasm that often displays aggressive biologic behavior. Recurrence after simple excision is common, and metastases have been reported. Early diagnosis is essential and rests upon histopathologic examination of biopsy specimens, since the clinical appearance of these neoplasms may be deceptively innocent.A 65 ...

Thrombocytosis in Women with Vulvar Carcinoma
Gynecologic Oncology, 1999Thrombocytosis (platelet count >400 x 10(9)/L) is frequently found in association with malignant disease.

Bone metastasis in vulvar carcinoma
Gynecologic Oncology, 1985Bone metastasis secondary to vulvar carcinoma, especially that involving distant bone, is an infrequent clinical entity.
