Abstract
Three new cases of gynecological verrucous squamous cell carcinomas are reported; one in the uterine cervix, and two in the vulva. The English literature covering the 49 cases reported previously is surveyed with special reference to the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of these tumors, as well as with their clinical behavior and possible relationship to viral (HPV) lesions (Condylomas) of the genital tract. It was concluded that so far the exact relationship between the different verrucous squamous cell lesions in the genital tract remains obscure, all such lesions should be regarded as potentially malignant, and treated accordingly by radical surgery.Keywords
