Abstract
Forty-four cases of melanoma of the vulva are reviewed. A leveling system comparable to that of Clark's (in cutaneous melanoma of nongenital origin), is described. Survival appears to be directly related to depth of invasion, with no patient with a Level II lesion succumbing to disease. Minimal therapy recommended is radical vulvectomy with bilateral inguinal-femoral node dissection.Entities:
