Synchronous vulvar and breast cancer is rare. A 49-year-old women presented a lesion in the the retroareolar region of the left breast and a lesion located in the vulvar region. She underwent breast conservation surgery with resection of the nipple-areola complex with axillary lymph node dissection and radical wide local vulvar excision with inguinal lymph node dissection. The pathology of the breast showed infiltrating ductal carcinoma and that of the vulva revealed squamous cell carcinoma. Only tree such cases have been previously reported.

She underwent breast conservation surgery with resection of the nipple-areola complex with axillary lymph node dissection and radical wide local vulvar excision with inguinal lymph node dissection. The pathology of the breast showed infiltrating ductal carcinoma and that of the vulva revealed squamous cell carcinoma. Only tree such cases have been previously reported.

Abstract: (french)
Le cancer du sein et de la vulve synchrone est exceptionnel. Nous rapportons le cas d’une femme de 49 ans qui présentait un nodule retro-aréolaire du sein gauche et une lésion vulvaire. La patiente a bénéficié d’une pamectomie gauche avec curage ganglionnaire axillaire homolatéral et d’une vulvectomie totale avec curage ganglionnaire inguinal bilatéral. A l’examen anatomopathologique, on retrouve une association synchrone d’un carcinome canalaire infiltrant du sein et d’un carcinome épidermoïde de la vulve. Seulement trois cas similaire ont été rapportés dans la littérature.
Author Keywords: cancer du sein, cancer de la vulve, association, rare.
