Abstract:
Carcinomas of Bartholin's gland are rare tumor that account for less than 0.001% of all gynecological malignancy, and account for 2-7% of vulvar malignancy. The treatment of Bartholin's gland carcinoma is not established yet. So it should be individualized to the patient by the resectability and the status of resection margin involvement. We experienced a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the Bartholin's gland treated by wide local excision and post-operative radiation therapy. We report this malignancy with a brief review of literature.
