Abstract
ABSTRACT The European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO), the International Society for the Study of Vulvovaginal Disease (ISSVD), the European College for the Study of Vulval Disease (ECSVD), and the European Federation for Colposcopy (EFC) developed consensus statements on pre-invasive vulvar lesions in order to improve the quality of care for patients with vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VaIN). The management of VaIN varies according to the grade of the lesion: VaIN 1 (low grade vaginal squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL)) can be subjected to follow-up, while VaIN 2-3 (high-grade vaginal SIL) should be treated. Treatment needs individualization according to the patient's characteristics, disease extension and previous therapeutic procedures. Surgical excision is the mainstay of treatment and should be performed if invasion cannot be excluded. Total vaginectomy is used only in highly selected cases of extensive and persistent disease. Carbon dioxide (CO2) laser may be used as both an ablation method and an excisional one. Reported cure rates after laser excision and laser ablation are similar. Topical agents are useful for persistent, multifocal lesions or for patients who cannot undergo surgical treatment. Imiquimod was associated with the lowest recurrence rate, highest human papillomavirus (HPV) clearance, and can be considered the best topical approach. Trichloroacetic acid and 5-fluorouracil are historical options and should be discouraged. For VaIN after hysterectomy for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 3, laser vaporization and topical agents are not the best options, since they cannot reach epithelium buried in the vaginal scar. In these cases surgical options are preferable. Brachytherapy has a high overall success rate but due to late side effects should be reserved for poor surgical candidates, having multifocal disease, and with failed prior treatments. VaIN tends to recur and ensuring patient adherence to close follow-up visits is of the utmost importance. The first evaluation should be performed at 6 months with cytology and an HPV test during 2 years and annually thereafter. The implementation of vaccination against HPV infection is expected to contribute to the prevention of VaIN and thus cancer of the vagina. The effects of treatment can have an impact on quality of life and result in psychological and psychosexual issues which should be addressed. Patients with VaIN need clear and up-to-date information on a range of treatment options including risks and benefits, as well as the need for follow-up and the risk of recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pagetoid urothelial intraepithelial neoplasia (PUIN) is a form of secondary Extramammary Paget Disease (EMPD). It is a rare malignant condition seen on the female genitalia synchronous or metachronous with bladder cancer (BC). CASE PRESENTATION A 66-year-old female presented with PUIN at the labia minora 2 years after an open anterior pelvic exenteration with ileal conduit urinary diversion for carcinoma in situ (CIS) of the bladder. PUIN of the vulva and vagina was confirmed by a punch biopsy and the patient underwent a radical vaginectomy with urethrectomy and inguinal sentinel node procedure. Immunohistochemically EMPD was identified by the expression tumor protein 63 (p63), cytokeratin 7, and cytokeratin 20 (CK20). CONCLUSIONS PUIN is a rare but distinct clinical entity as a form of secondary EMPD which can be differentiated from primary EMPD based on medical history, histology, and immunohistochemistry.

Abstract
Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is a rare neoplasm that usually develops in apocrine gland-bearing areas, such as the vulva, scrotum, and penis. EMPD may present with a focal, multifocal, or an ectopic lesion. Clinically, EMPD lesions often exhibit infiltrative erythema, which is sometimes similar to other skin disorders such as eczema. While primary EMPD arises as intraepithelial neoplasm of the epidermis, EMPD-like lesions may occur from epidermotropic spread of malignant cells or direct extension from an underlying internal neoplasm, known as secondary EMPD. Because treatment strategies differ for primary EMPD and secondary EMPD, accurate diagnosis based on detailed histopathological evaluation is required. In the early stages, EMPD usually shows indolent growth, and most cases are diagnosed as carcinoma in situ. However, invasive lesions may result in metastases, and deep invasion is associated with high incidence of metastases. Conventional chemotherapies have been used for EMPD treatment in patients with distant metastases, but the efficacy is not satisfactory, and the prognosis for such patients remains poor. Recent studies have provided various insights into the molecular pathogenesis of the development and advancement of EMPD, which may lead to novel treatment approaches for metastatic EMPD. This review addresses the diagnosis, pathogenesis, and treatment of EMPD with focus on recent progress in understanding this disease.

Vulvar Paget disease secondary to high-grade urothelial carcinoma with underlying massive vascular embolization and cervical involvement: case report of unusual presentation. Diagn Pathol 2019; 14:125.

Abstract
Background Vulvar extramammary Paget disease is a rare chronic condition, that presents with non-specific symptoms such as pruritus and eczematous lesions. Because most of these lesions are noninvasive, the distinction between primary and secondary Paget disease is crucial to management. Case presentation We report an unusual case of vulvar Paget disease associated with massive dermal vascular embolization, cervicovaginal involvement and metastasis to inguinal and retroperitoneal lymph nodes. The intraepithelial vulvar lesion had a classical appearance and was accompanied by extensive component of dermal lymphovascular tumor emboli, similar to those observed in inflammatory breast carcinoma. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the lesion was secondary to high-grade urothelial cell carcinoma. The patient had a history of superficial low-grade papillary urothelial carcinoma of the bladder, which had appeared 2 years before the onset of vulvar symptoms. Conclusions Eczematoid vulvar lesions merit careful clinical examination and biopsy, including vulva mapping and immunohistochemistry. The information obtained may help to define and classify a particular presentation of Paget disease. Noninvasive primary lesions do not require the same aggressive approaches required for the treatment of invasive and secondary disease.
