Radical local excision and ipsilateral lymph node dissection in lateral tumours may be effective for carcinoma of the vulva compared with more radical surgery.
A Cochrane review included 3 observational studies with a total of 347 subjects. According to these studies radical local excision is as safe as radical vulvectomy, an ipsilateral lymph node dissection is safe in patients with well-lateralized tumour, but superficial groin dissection is not as safe as full femoro-inguinal node dissection.
Comment: The quality of evidence is downgraded by imprecise results (few patients).
