Leslie A Sadownik1, Richard I Crawford.   

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Melanoma in situ is a rare malignant lesion of the vulva. The standard treatment is surgical excision. CASE: We describe a case of melanoma in situ of the vulva in a 72-year-old woman that reoccurred after surgical excision and was treated successfully with topical 5% imiquimod.
CONCLUSION: There may be a role for imiquimod in treating melanoma in situ of the vulva.
