title: [Verrucous carcinoma of the vulva].
abstract: We reported a case of verrucous carcinoma of the vulva, (VCV) presented at an 71 year old caucasian woman, who was admitted to University of Chile Clinical Hospital, December 11, 1987. She had complained of vulvar itching, pain and a tumor at left labium mayor during the last ten years. The tumor was removed, and then a simple vulvectomy with bilateral superficial lymphadenectomy through separate groin incisions was performed. All the 27 inguinal nodes were free of metastasis, and the vulvar skin presented a mixed dystrophy with light atypia (VIN I). She is alive and well one year after surgical treatment.
