Abstract
Objective: To assess the sexual function after local excision and flap repair for symptomatic vulval intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN).
Study design: A retrospective analysis of five sexually active women who had persistent, symptomatic VIN diagnosed in a dedicated tertiary referral vulval clinic and treated with local excision and flap repair. Sexual function was assessed using a modified version of the Sabbatsberg Sexual Self-Rating Scoring (SRS) system.
Results: The mean age of the cohort was 32 years (range 30 to 51). Four patients had previously been unsuccessfully treated with local excision. Follow up ranged from 5 to 33 months. The SRS scores were 90, 90, 81, 72 and 25. Endogenous depression may explain this last score. There has been no recurrence of VIN.
Conclusion: In sexually active women with symptomatic VIN III, a flap reconstruction should be considered in addition to local excision as the treatment of choice.
