“…The direct spread confers a poor prognosis due to the advanced stage of the disease (8). However, few cases of vaginal TCC that occur synchronously or metachronously with non-muscle invasive TCC of the urinary tract have been described (9,10). In addition, the extremely rare entity of primary vaginal TCC in the absence of a urinary tract tumor has also been reported (11)(12)(13).…”

Abstract. The involvement of the female genital tract in transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) has not been fully elucidated in women, although involvement is usually associated with a poor prognosis. The vagina, in particular, is considered to be the most commonly affected gynecological organ, with an incidence of 4% of total TCC cases. The pathogenesis of vaginal TCC is challenging to determine, although it is essential for the adequate management of the tumor and to determine the appropriate treatment. The present study reports a case of bladder TCC and metachronous vaginal TCC. The patient had a history of high risk non muscle invasive bladder cancer treated by BCG and presented with a recurrent carcinoma in situ. A novel cycle of BCG was initiated but the patient had a persistent disease and a palpable mass on bimanual examination. Radical anterior pelvectomy and bilateral pelvic and inguinal lymph node dissection was performed revealing the presence of TCC of the bladder neck and the invasion into the anterior vaginal wall. The differences between local vaginal invasion and the metastatic spread from a primary bladder TCC, the occurrence of a second primary vaginal tumor and the direct implantation of TCC via urine that contains transitional cancer cells were reviewed and analyzed. Finally, a management plan was determined.

Rationale:Primary vaginal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a rare disease. Primary SCC in prolapsed vagina is extremely rare. In the presented case additional bladder involvement was found.Patients concerns:Primary vaginal SCC may be misinterpreted as decubitus in prolapsed vagina and it may delay proper diagnosis and treatment.Diagnoses:Diagnosis was confirmed by the vaginal ulceration biopsy and cystoscopic biopsy of the involved bladder.Interventions:In the case presented percutaneous nephrostomy was the only possible treatment of hydronephrosis.Outcomes:In advanced primary SCC (Figo IVA) with nodal involvement palliative treatment is only option.Lessons:Primary SCC mimicking decubitus which appeared in prolapsed vagina, may be accompanied by bladder involvement.
