Abstract

Vulvovaginal melanoma is a rare malignancy with a poor prognosis and variable clinical presentation. In a 15-year retrospective review, we identified 15 cases where wide local excision was the most common treatment. Serial digital photography was implemented to support early detection, monitoring and clinician education.
