Abstract:
BACKGROUND: We present a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to characterize the contemporary research landscape of vulvar cancer (VC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: To identify publications relevant to VC research, a systematic search of the Web of Science (WoS) database was conducted. Key bibliographic information was extracted, and quantitative analyses and network mapping (VOSviewer) were performed. RESULTS: A total of 3702 publications were identified, with the earliest record dating back to 1946 and a steadily increasing publication volume over recent decades. Most of the literature has been published in English. The leading journals publishing VC research were Gynecologic Oncology (Elsevier) and the International Journal of Gynecological Cancer (Elsevier). A subsequent keyword analysis revealed distinct conceptual domains within the field, and an examination of the ten most frequently cited articles highlighted recurrent clinically relevant themes, including lymph node assessment/management and HPV genotype distribution. CONCLUSION: In this analysis, we outline key research trends, influential regions, leading journals, and the most cited works in VC research. Such bibliometric summaries may serve as a useful guide for future research efforts and support funding decisions.
