Since they are very rare tumors, lymphomas of the vulva are often not properly recognized. Patients with vulvar lymphoma are generally elderly and the classical manifestation of the disease is a vulvar mass. No significant age differences have been found between primary and secondary lymphoma. To make a correct diagnosis, it is therefore necessary to use not only histological examination but also the genetic and molecular profile in order to establish optimal therapeutic management. Literature analysis confirm the good prognosis of this disease.
由于外阴淋巴瘤属于罕见肿瘤,常未能被准确识别。患者通常为老年人群,典型临床表现为外阴肿块。原发性与继发性淋巴瘤在年龄分布上未见显著差异。因此,为明确诊断并制定最佳治疗方案,除组织学检查外,还需结合遗传学与分子谱系分析。文献研究证实该疾病预后良好。
