ABSTRACT
In recentyears, theincidence ofvul- var carcinoma has increased over 400%, specifically in the population of young women. We present a patient with an extensive history of recurrent vulvar carcinoma in situ who underwent multiple surgi- cal procedures and subsequent reconstruction with a skin graft, who then returned with a rare recur- rence in the graft. Multiple hypotheses have been proposedto explain the recurrence ofthis type ofcar- cinoma; however, none provides a solid explanation. It has been noted that the increase in the incidence of vulvar cancer correlates with the increased incidence of HPV infection; the relationship between the two has been well-established. In conclusion, we recommend close and long-term follow-up for high-risk patients with this type of neoplasm.
