Clinical:<br />
* Pruritic red, crusted, sharply demarcated, maplike area,<br />
* Occurring usually on the labia majora.<br />
* Possible palpable submucosal thickening or tumor<br />
BUT….tumor cells often extend into skin appendages and<br />
may extend beyond the confines of the grossly visible<br />
lesion----- prone to recurrence.<br />
Prognosis is poor if associated with<br />
invasive cancer!!<br />

many years without invasion.<br />

Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN)<br />
• Premalignant lesion of the vainal squamous<br />
epithelium that can develop primary in the<br />
vagina or as an extension from the cervix<br />
• Histologically VAIN is defined in the same way<br />
as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)<br />
Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN)<br />
• Much less common than CIN<br />
• Mean age is 50 years<br />
• Majority occur in prior hysterectomy or history of<br />
cervical or vulvar neoplasia<br />
• Increase incidence among young and<br />
immunosuppressed women<br />
• Associated with HPV infection (HPV type 16)<br />
Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN)<br />
• More commonly multifocal<br />
• Isolated lesion are mainly in the upper third of<br />
vagina and vaginal vault after hysterectomy<br />
• VAIN is asymptomatic and cannot be diagnosed<br />
by the naked eye<br />
• Detection is by mean of colposcopic biopsy<br />
Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN)<br />
Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN)<br />
