Vaginal squamous cell carcinoma

Squamous cell carcinoma of the vagina is the most common vaginal malignancy. Because the vaginal mucosa is covered by squamous epithelium, 80% to 90% of primary vaginal cancers are squamous cell carcinoma of vagina. It is generally believed that vaginal squamous epithelial cancer may have the entire process from the intraepithelial tumor (VAIN) stage, from microinvasive cancer to invasive cancer. Due to the small number of cases, the natural course of this cancer has not been fully understood.
