Abstract
► Vaginal melanoma in situ is a rare neoplasm with a paucity of data regarding the optimal management. ► More conservative approaches are needed to avoid the disfigurement, pain and postoperative complications associated with repeated surgical interventions. ► Imiquimod may prove to be a useful treatment modality for patients with vulvar or vaginal melanoma in situ.Entities:
