Abstract
A pathological resection margin <8Â mm was not related to an increased risk of local recurrence. The most important predictor of local recurrence was the presence of lichen sclerosus. A resection margin <8Â mm in vulvar SCC can therefore be accepted, especially in tumors located close to clitoris, urethra or anus.
