Vulvar microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma arising in vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia 3 complicated by genital warts and systemic lupus erythematosus: a case report

A patient suffering from long-term systemic lupus erythematosus attended with a complaint of recurrent genital warts. Perineal white-colored skin and a peri-anal papillary protrusion adjacent to the genital warts were biopsied and determined to be vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) 3 and microinvasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), respectively. These lesions were locally excised. Human papillomavirus (HPV)-6 was detected in these lesions, including in the genital warts, while HPV-56 was detected only in the perineal VIN3 and peri-anal microinvasive SCC.
