Abstract

Vaginal cancer, 2% of all female genital malignancies, has a worse prognosis than cervical cancer. Squamos cell carcinoma, the most common histologic subtype, may be associated partly with human papillomavirus. Most patients present with vaginal bleeding and discharge. Radiation or surgery are the main treatment modalities, but the physical and psychosexual morbidity can be significant.
