OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a simple reconstructive procedure used in combination with a modified oncological approach to the treatment of invasive vulvar cancer. Local and systemic morbidity, length of hospital stay, local recurrence, and mortality were evaluated.
METHODS: Between September 1995 and January 1997, 19 patients underwent radical vulvectomy and inguinal lymphadenectomy with a modified oncological approach. The modified approach consisted of a triple incision: two inguinal incisions, shorter and following force lines of the groin, and a third incision around the vulvar lesion. Vulvectomy included a 2-cm safety margin around the tumor, based on clinical examination and anatomical-pathological frozen sections of the specimen. This procedure was always followed by perineal reconstruction with V-Y flaps by the plastic surgery team. Median follow-up was 12 months. The complication rate and lengths of hospital stay were evaluated and compared with those in a similar group in which radical vulvectomy was performed associated with two long longitudinal incisions in the groin. The data were statistically analyzed.
RESULTS: The perineal and inguinal dehiscence rates in group A (traditional approach) were 68.4% and 78.94%, respectively. The same rates in group B (modified approach), were 10.5% and 36.84%, respectively. Mean hospital stay was 39.5 days in group A (traditional) vs. 14.0 days in group B (modified). At 30 months' median follow-up, the rate of local recurrence in group A (traditional) was 42.0%; at 12 months' median follow-up, local recurrence in group B (modified) was 26.3%.
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the use of V-Y flaps in combination with a modified oncological approach significantly reduced local complication rates and lengths of hospital stay, while observing oncological principles.
