    Summary

    Vulvar sweat gland carcinomas are rare and challenging to diagnose due to their varied appearance and similarity to other cancers. This study details five cases, aiding in understanding their behavior and treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Gynecologic Oncology
    • Dermatopathology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Vulvar sweat gland carcinomas are rare malignancies, accounting for less than 10% of vulvar tumors.
    • Histopathologic diagnosis is complicated by rarity, diverse morphology, and resemblance to metastatic disease.

    Observation:

    • This report details five cases of vulvar sweat gland carcinomas.
    • Two cases were associated with extramammary Paget's disease (EPD).
    • Other diagnoses included ductal eccrine adenocarcinoma, eccrine porocarcinoma, and clear cell hidradenocarcinoma.

    Findings:

    • The study correlates the clinical behavior of these rare vulvar neoplasms with their specific histologic subtypes.
    • Differential diagnosis strategies are presented for accurate identification.

    Implications:

    • Improved understanding of vulvar sweat gland carcinomas can enhance diagnostic accuracy.
    • Tailored treatment recommendations based on histologic type may improve patient outcomes.
