Vulvar Squamous Cell Carcinoma Metastatic to the Skin

Dermatologic Surgery, 1998
Cutaneous metastases from vulvar squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) have been reported only twice previously and both patients expired shortly after they occurred. Mohs surgery has been reported in three previous publications as a successful treatment for local invasive vulvar SCC and Bowen's disease.To describe a third case with cutaneous metastases and ...

Tumor Angiogenesis in Vulvar Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Gynecologic Oncology, 1999
Angiogenesis has been shown to correlate positively with the presence of metastatic disease in some tumors, but has not been studied in invasive vulvar squamous cell carcinoma. Fifty cases of invasive vulvar squamous cell carcinoma were studied in an effort to correlate angiogenesis with stage, survival, and pattern of invasion.These patients were ...

Update on Imaging of Vulvar Squamous Cell Carcinoma

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2013
The purpose of this article is to describe the advantages and diagnostic and prognostic implications of imaging in the management of vulvar carcinoma.As the treatment of vulvar carcinoma evolves to tailored surgery and chemoradiation therapy to reduce morbidity, the importance of pretreatment assessment of vulvar carcinoma increases.

p16INK4a Expression in Invasive Vulvar Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Applied Immunohistochemistry & Molecular Morphology, 2007
p16, a member of the INK4a family of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, is known as a negative regulator of cell cycle progression and differentiation. Although p16 has been shown to be a promising biomarker for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, few data have been published on vulvar cancer.

Pathways of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia and squamous cell carcinoma

Histopathology, 2012
Vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) accounts for >90% of the malignant tumours of the vulva. Most VSCCs originate in intraepithelial lesions, named vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN), that precede the development of VSCC by a variable period of time.

SLNB and the importance of micrometastases in vulvar squamous cell carcinoma

Surgical Oncology, 2008
With the exception of patients with tumors smaller than 2 cm and infiltration less than 1mm, standard treatment for squamous cell carcinomas of the vulva includes ipsi- or bilateral inguinofemoral lymph node dissection. However, with only 20% of early stage patients presenting with lymph node metastases in the groin, the majority of these patients do ...

The risk of squamous cell carcinoma in persistent vulvar ulcers

Menopause, 2011
The standard evaluation for vulvar ulcers includes an office biopsy. There are limited data regarding the false-negative rate of a punch biopsy in detecting squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva. This study reports on pathologic discrepancies between office biopsy and subsequent wide local excision for nonhealing vulvar ulcers.A retrospective review of ...

Lack of microsatellite instability in squamous cell vulvar carcinoma

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2012
AbstractMutator phenotypes with microsatellite instability (MSI) are observed in a subset of solid tumors. The objective of our study was to investigate the occurrence of MSI in vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) and a possible relation between MSI and the presence of human papilloma virus (HPV).
