The study has been aimed at the analysis of the frequency of adverse prognostic factors in patients undergoing radical electro-surgery and groin lymphadenectomy.Methodology A total of 28 cases have been analysed. All patients covered by the study had FIGO stage IB-III vulval cancer and were treated with radical electro-surgery and groin lymphadenectomy between March 2016 and December 2018 The patients' age ranged from 46 to 82 years old, and their eligibility for treatment was decided by a designated panel of specialists made up of gynaecologic oncologists, radiotherapy specialists and clinical oncologists. Surgical treatment consisted in radical electro-resection and groin lymphadenectomy.Results Early recurrence was found in 6 patients (22%). 4 out of 6 patients had local vulvar recurrence, which was treated with a wide excision with a surgical margin = 1 cm. In all cases of early recurrence, the primary tumour had involved the clitoris.The remaining 2 patients suffered from groin recurrence. In all these cases, a narrow original surgical margin ≤ 0.3 cm was determined, and the patients had post-surgically received adjuvant intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in a dose of 50 Gy/25 fr.Conclusion 1.Adverse prognostic factors in vulval cancer patients treated with radical electro-resection surgery and groin lymphadenectomy include:-clitoral involvement,-narrow surgical margin ≤ 0.3 cm, the latter correlating with a higher incidence of groin recurrence.Disclosure Nothing to disclose
