Abstract:
Synchronous vulvar and breast cancer is rare. A 44-year-old women presented with a lesion in the right labia majora and right upper quadrant breast lump. After work-up, she underwent radical wide local vulvar excision and modified radical mastectomy with axillary lymph node dissection. The pathology of the vulva revealed moderately-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma and that of the breast infiltrating ductal carcinoma. Only two such cases have been previously reported: one was an elderly patient and the second a young patient with HIV infection. Our patient is a young and healthy woman making her presentation a unique and rare case.

When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
