Summary I
In the absence of robust evidence, adjuvant local RT should be
offered if re-excision will not be possible, since recurrence has a
poor prognosis regardless of any salvage treatment.

This controversy reflects the ongoing problem of a lack of reliable
prognostic factors, especially in node-negative vulvar cancer.

Adjuvant local RT should be offered, since recurrence has a

VULVAR CANCER
+ inguinofemoral lymph node affectation is the most important
prognostic factor (for recurrence and survival ) in vulvar cancer
Large primary tumors (≥ 4cm) and LVSI also correlate with an
increased risk for local recurrence in vulvar cancer
Homesley HD et al. 1986 / 1991, Burger MP et al. 1995, Beller U et al. 2006
40. At present, only patients with 2 or more + lymph nodes or at least 1
with ECI are treated with adjuvant radiotherapy, based on…
Gynecol Oncol 1992, Cancer 1994,Cancer 1995,
Gynecol Oncol 2004, Obstet Gynecol 2009
However, growing evidence show that patients with only 1 nodal
macrometastasis might benefit from adjuvant treatment.
Curr Opin Oncol 2010, Int J Gynecol Cancer 2012
VULVAR CANCER
Adjuvant RT
Results from the largest retrospective multicenter study on vulvar cancer
(AGO CaRE-1) with more than 1600 patients showed an improvement in
prognosis from adjuvant radiotherapy irrespective of the number of nodes
affected.
J Clin Oncol 2012
Evidence
41. The potential benefit of chemoradiation for node-positive vulvar cancer
has not been systematically addressed.
Some studies with small number of patients showed a benefit in
survival although the difference was not statistically significant.
Han SC et al. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2000
VULVAR CANCER
Adjuvant RT + CHT
Evidence
42. Currently, adjuvant radiotherapy of the groin and pelvis should be
recommended after radical groin dissection in the case of:
•2 or more affected lymph nodes
•1 affected lymph node with ECI or an enlarged lymph node
VULVAR CANCER
Adjuvant RT
In the case of only 1 intracapsular metastasis, the role of
radiotherapy is of unclear significance.
Burger MP et al. 1995, Woelber et al.2009
However, adding adjuvant RT to the primary tumor bed should be
decided based on pathological prognostic factors.
