ABSTRACT

With a frequency of between 3 and 5%, vulvar cancer is one of the rarest female neoplasia. It is a particular cancer that mainly affects women over the age of 65, whose general condition is willingly weakened, which inevitably influences the terms of care. Diagnosis is easy and must be early, although patients often consult late at an advanced stage either through negligence, ignorance or modesty. Histologically, several types are distinguished, but more or less differentiated squamous cell carcinoma accounts for 90% of etiologies. Surgery remains the treatment of choice for vulvar cancers, especially in their invasive forms, but if the diagnosis is made late, other alternatives are discussed. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma diagnosed late at stage IVb of Figo at the Suissi maternity hospital in Rabat.
