Overview

Vulvar cancer must be differentiated from other neoplastic vulvar lesions, non neoplastic vulvar lesions, and infectious disease lesions of vulva.

Differentiating vulvar cancer from other Diseases

  • Vulvar cancer must be differentiated from other neoplastic vulvar lesions such as:
  • Vulvar cancer must be differentiated from other non neoplastic vulvar lesions such as:
  • Vulvar cancer must be differentiated from infectious disease lesions of vulva such as:

Other differential considerations include:

Diseases Clinical manifestations Para-clinical findings Gold standard
Symptoms Physical exam Lab Findings Imaging Histopathology
Abnormal

vaginal bleeding

Abnormal vaginal dyscharge Pelvic

pain

Itching or

burning of the vulva
