title: [A look beyond urology: vaginal cancer].
abstract: Primary carcinomas of the vagina are very rare. Nevertheless, they need to be included in differential diagnoses when carrying out a urological examination of the pelvic floor and the vagina in patients with micturition problems, also in younger patients: we report a case of a 35-year-old woman with a primary carcinoma of the vagina and present a review of the literature.
