title: Basal cell carcinoma of the vulva with groin node metastasis.
abstract: There have been five previous well-documented cases of metastatic vulvar basal cell cancer in the literature. We now present the sixth case-an 86-year-old patient with vulvar basal cell cancer metastatic to an ipsilateral groin node. She was treated with radical vulvectomy and bilateral inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy and remains free of disease 1 year later.
