Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Accuracy, negative predictive value (NPV) and positive predictive value (PPV) of ultrasound morphometry (USM) in the prediction of groin lymph node status

    within the first 30 days after surgery

  • Accuracy, negative predictive value (NPV) and positive predictive value (PPV) of fine needle aspiration in the prediction of groin lymph node status

    within the first 30 days after surgery

Study Arms (1)

Invasive vulvar cancer (IVC)

EXPERIMENTAL

* Vulvar carcinoma (stromal infiltration \> 1 mm) * Histotypes different from squamous cells carcinomas are included

Procedure: Groin ultrasound +/- fine needle aspiration

Interventions

Preoperative ultrasound morphometry (USM) of the inguino-femoral lymph nodes (IFLN). The FNAC and/or FNAB is performed in case of suspicious nodes, if at least one of the selected criteria is relieved during ultrasound

Invasive vulvar cancer (IVC)
