Clinico-pathological profile of carcinoma of the vulva.
There is a need for patient and physician education with regard to the early diagnosis of carcinoma of the vulva. Physicians must be made more aware of the importance of taking a biopsy diagnosis before treating a vulvar lesion. Biopsy of the vulva is a simple procedure that can be performed in any physician's office. Now we must all shift to the 3-incision operative procedure as it has proven to have less morbidity & mortality.
