<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt text-align: justify"><font size="3"><font face="Calibri">Carcinoma of the vulva has
commonly been recognized as a disease of postmenopausal women, but some cases
have been reported in young women during pregnancy. Medical records were
reviewed for a patient with vulvar carcinoma diagnosed in pregnancy. Using Medline
and cross references, pertinent articles were sought and reviewed. A
28-year-old Afghan woman in her sixth pregnancy presented with a vulvar lesion.
Subsequent biopsy revealed squamous cell carcinoma. The patient was treated with
local excision. She had a cesarean section in her 36'h week of pregnancy. She undetwent
modified radical vulvectomy with bilateral groin dissection four weeks after ce
arean. Because of a grossly positive groin lymph node, she also unde1went
radiation therapy. She is alive without invasive cancer 7 months after
diagnosis. This case demonstrates the need to biopsy all suspicious vulvar
lesions, even in young and pregnant women.<o:p /></font></font></p>
