ABSTRACT
@#Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma (MEC) is an epithelial malignant tumor that was first described as a salivary gland malignancy. Though common in salivary gland, it is extremely rare in the vulva with only 2 cases reported in the English language literature and none yet in the Philippines. Due to its low incidence, prognosis and definitive management is still unclear. This is a case of a 68-year-old woman with a history of vulvar pruritus and vulvar mass at the left labia majora. Punch biopsy and review of slides revealed Invasive Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Non-Keratinizing type. She underwent Radical Vulvectomy and Bilateral Lymph Groin Dissection; Wide Excision of Perineal Area; Protective Transverse Loop Colostomy; Gracilis Myocutaneous Flap with Identification of Right and Left Median Circumflex Artery with a final histopathology report of Primary Cutaneous MEC of the vulva with lymph node metastasis.
