title: [Metastasizing malignant melanoma of the vagina].
abstract: We report on a 54-year-old patient with multiple cutaneous, lung and liver metastases. The primary tumour is a malignant melanoma of the vagina, who developed within one year after the last gynaecological examination. Our case report is another example for the poor prognosis of this rare vaginal tumour.
