Vaginal malignancy

Malignant tumors of the vagina are often secondary and can spread directly from cervical cancer, or come from endometrial, ovarian, and chorionic cancers. In addition, bladder, urethral, ​​or rectal cancer can often metastasize to the vagina. Primary vaginal malignancies are rare, accounting for about 1% of malignant tumors in female reproductive organs. It is mainly squamous epithelial cancer, chorionic epithelial cancer, and others such as adenocarcinoma, sarcoma and malignant melanoma are more rare. In the medical practice, young women and obstetricians have seen only a few cases of patients with secondary vagina. Sexual cancer is more common, and the possibility of secondary vaginal cancer should be considered and excluded before the diagnosis of primary tumors.
