Disorders in patients who develop squamous cell carcinoma can lead to severe conditions. The present case study evidences the advance of this pathology in a patient who goes to the medical services when the problem has advanced.
Objective- To describe the case of a patient who underwent surgery to remove a tumor from the vulvar region to prevent it from triggering in severe states.
Method - Surgery of a vulvar tumor, performed on a female patient of 62 years.
Result- Squamous cell carcinoma, infiltrative verrucous type, with dimensions of 7x6 cm, with an invasion depth of 2.7 mm in the central region
Conclusion- This type of pathology should not be allowed to worsen when it occurs, as it deteriorates the quality of life of patients over the years. If it is detected and treated early, complications can be avoided. In the present case, the histopathological diagnosis was epidermoid carcinoma. It is expected that the information collected will be useful to professionals and that it contributes as an alert to detect early health problems in patients.
