description | Introduction:
Vulvar verrucous carcinoma (VC) is extremely rare, accounting for less than 1% of vulvar cancer cases. Effectively, it is characterization by a slow growing, no metastasis or lymph node involvement.
The aim of this study was to report our experience with this disease
Material and Methods:
This is a retrospective study of patients with vulvar VC who were treated at National Institute of Oncology between 2013 and 2018. Clinicopathological characteristics, treatment and follow-up were extracted from the medical records.
Results:
Three cases were identified in the National Institut of Oncology. The average age at diagnosis was 66 years (± 10.02). The average time from the onset of symptoms to diagnosis was 17 months (± 12,7). All patients complained of a vulvar mass or nodule, accompanied by vulvar pruritus and/or pain, which was the reason for consultation. A preliminary pathological diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma was made in two cases. Surgical treatment included wide local excision, radical vulvectomy with lymph node dissection in the groin. Tumor size and invasion depth ranged from 50 to 105 mm and 17 to 35 mm respectively. In the final histology, VC of the vulva staged IB (2 cases) and staged III (1 case) with marginal limits in two cases. The concurrent radiochemotherapy was performed in one case, exclusive radiotherapy in one case and only surgery in one case.
Regarding toxicity after concurrent radiochemotherapy and exclusive radiotherapy we had observed respectely grade 2 proctitis with renal toxicity and grade 2 radiodermatitis.
The mean follow-up was 43 months with no recurrence in all cases.
The prognosis is good, with low recurrent rate if wide local excision is performed.
Conclusions:
Vulvar VC is a distinct type of slow-growing, tumor with unclear etiology. Surgery is the most effective treatment. Concurrent radiochemotherapy indicated depending on disease stage and risk factors. |
