[…] highlights the fact that all cases of vulvar dystrophy especially, lichen sclerosus must be regularly followed up for development of squamous cell hyperplasia and their progression to overt vulvar carcinoma, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and treatment[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
So far, vulvar carcinoma did not develop in any of the patient followed in our study who received treatment for vulvar dystrophy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Vulvar cancer is usually associated with a poor prognosis.[amboss.com]
In addition, some dysplastic lesions may have a worse prognosis than isolated carcinomas without leukoplakia. However, dysplastic lesions can regress spontaneously. Therefore, the behaviour of dysplastic lesions is unpredictable.[patient.info]
Grade I (mature, or well-differentiated) cancers have a better prognosis than grade 3 (poorly-differentiated) tumors.[womenscancercenter.com]
If vulvar cancer has invaded the lymph nodes, the prognosis depends on the number of lymph nodes involved.[drugs.com]
