Epitheloid sarcoma of the vulva.

A rare case of epitheloid sarcoma of the vulva is described. This is a soft-tissue malignancy arising from tenosynovial tissue. The patient presented with a painless lump of the vulva of a month's duration. An excision biopsy was performed followed by a wide local excision after the actual diagnosis was confirmed. Post-operatively, her recovery was uneventful and she was seen in the Cancer clinic at regular intervals. Three years following surgery, she was well with no evidence of any recurrence. The suggested mode of treatment ranged from a wide local excision to radical vulvectomy with groin node dissection.
