Abstract :
Synchronous vulvar and colon cancer is rare. A 61-year-old woman presented with a lesion on her clitoris and fatigue, malaise and weight loss and underwent excisional biopsy over the lesion on the clitoris 2 cm in diameter. The vulvar biopsy showed squamous cell carcinoma and she had PET-CT scan at her own request demand. The PET-CT revealed invasive colon carcinoma and the colonoscopic examination and biopsy revealed adenocarcinoma. After work-up, she underwent radical anterior hemivulvectomy with superficial inguinal lymph node dissection and rigth hemicolectomy. The pathology of the vulva revealed squamous cell carsinoma with right inguinal lymph node metastasis and colon adenocarsinoma. This co-incidence is very uncommon and brings to mind of the possibility of multiple primary carsinomas.
