Vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia, also known as VIN, is a non-invasive squamous lesion and precursor of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the vulva. There is no screening test for vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia. Diagnosis of VIN is made clinically and confirmed with a biopsy. We describe a 66-year-old woman with a condyloma-like tumour located in the skin on the vestibule of the vagina. A biopsy sample was taken from the nodule. The definitive diagnosis is supported by the histological examination (VIN III) and immunohistochemical examination of p16(+), p53(+), and a few cell nuclei. The case provides information on the importance of multidisciplinary cooperation. Lifelong surveillance is essential since the resection of individual lesions does not guarantee the prevention of invasive cancer.
外阴上皮内瘤变,也称为VIN,是一种非侵袭性鳞状病变,是外阴鳞状细胞癌(SCC)的前驱病变。目前尚无针对外阴上皮内瘤变的筛查试验。VIN的诊断通过临床做出,并经活检证实。我们描述了一名66岁女性,其阴道前庭皮肤上有一个尖锐湿疣样肿瘤。从结节处取了活检样本。组织学检查(VIN III级)以及p16(阳性)、p53(阳性)和少数细胞核的免疫组化检查支持了明确诊断。该病例提供了关于多学科合作重要性的信息。由于切除单个病变并不能保证预防浸润性癌,因此终身监测至关重要。
