Abstract
This survey reports the past 38 yr of experience with 192 cases of carcinoma of the vulva. The review stresses the increased incidence of in situ neoplasia and the importance of individualization of therapy. The changing concepts in terminology (eg, the leukoplakic vulvitis of the past is the dystrophy of the present) suggest that the precursory alterations of previous discussions must be reviewed in the light of such an altered nomenclature. Features of epidemiologic and histologic importance are discussed.
