Vulvar cancer accounts for less than 1% of malignancies in women. Verrucous carcinoma of the vulva is a rare histological variation, comprising less than 1% of vulvar cancer cases. Although it is characterized as being locally invasive, the condition is not associated with metastatic spreading. Lesions present in the form of a verrucous, ulcerated, and bleeding tumor that can reach large dimensions. This type of tumor can be mistaken for condylomata, both macroscopically and microscopically. We report the case of an 81-year-old patient with a large vulvar tumor presented for eight years, initially considered as a Buschke-Löwenstein tumor. The patient underwent radical vulvectomy with a V-Y advancement flap technique. This type of tumor should be considered by clinicians dealing with condylomatous ulcerative lesions that do not respond to the usual treatment.

“…The reported 3-year overall survival rate is 94.7% and tumor control rate is 100%. [78] Surgical treatment of oral-cancer often results in an unfavorable anatomic and biomechanical situation, like limitation of mouth opening from scarring, impaired function of the tongue, loss of labio-lingual sulcus, deviation of mandible, lack of underlying bony support for the facial features, and adequate soft-tissue for restoration of speech and swallowing.…”

Oral rehabilitation of segmental mandibulectomy patient with osseointegrated dental implant

et al. 2014

Surgical management of oral cancer lesions results in explicit aesthetic and functional disfigurement, including facial deformity, loss of hard and soft tissue, impaired speech, swallowing and mastication, which modify the patient's self-image and quality-of-life. Recent advances in head and neck reconstruction techniques and dental implant based prosthetic rehabilitation may significantly improve the quality-of-life and self-esteem for such post-surgery patients. This clinical report describes rehabilitation of oral cancer patient having segmental mandibulectomy with implant-supported fixed partial denture.

“…The increase in ROS may have been the event that led to the consumption and reduction of salivary antioxidant systems, thus explaining the oxidative damage to the DNA and proteins, and possibly the promotion of oral cancer (9). The pathogenesis of oral VC is unclear; however, studies have shown strong association with tobacco use, including both inhaled and smokeless tobacco, alcohol, and human papillomavirus (10)(11)(12)(13)(14). The enzymatic antioxidant system includes manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and catalase.…”
