Gynecol Oncol. 2001 Mar;80(3):403-4. doi: 10.1006/gyno.2000.6078.

Abstract

Background: Development of carcinoma in situ in a neovagina is rare.

Case: A case of carcinoma in situ of a neovagina complicated by recurrence after ablative therapy is discussed. Recurrence occurred within 4 months of initial therapy, and a total vaginectomy was performed after the patient declined other therapeutic options.

Conclusion: Recurrent carcinoma in situ of a neovagina can be successfully treated by surgical excision.
