Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the vulva: a case report.
This report describes a lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the vulva in a 64-year-old woman. The tumor showed distinct morphologic features including syncytial sheets of malignant epithelioid cells and a dense lymphoplasmacytoid infiltrate. In situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry for Epstein-Barr virus were negative. The tumor was treated by surgical excision. No evidence of recurrence has been detected 3 years after treatment. To our knowledge this is the second reported case of lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the vulva.
