Neurotropic desmoplastic melanoma: a rare vulvar malignancy.

Abstract:

:Melanoma represents the second most frequent vulvar malignancy, and yet is still considered to be an uncommon neoplasm. Several varieties of melanoma exist. A patient who was diagnosed with a rare subtype of melanoma as a primary vulvar process is presented here. To date, there is only one other reported case of neurotropic desmoplastic melanoma as a primary vulvar lesion. Our management included wide local excision of the primary lesion with clinical follow-up. Microstaging of this lesion showed it to fall into the poor prognosis category as per Breslow's technique, with a thickness of 6.5 mm. Clinical follow-up has been greater than 30 months without evidence of recurrence.
