Abstract

Malignant neoplasms of the vagina are rare gynecologic tumors. Primary vaginal sarcomas are even more unusual lesions, representing fewer than 2% of malignant vaginal lesions. We present a case of a primary vaginal spindle cell sarcoma, treated with neoadjuvant radiation followed by total pelvic exenteration. The patient remains without evidence of disease 2 years after surgery. The mainstay of treatment of vaginal sarcomas is surgical. Neoadjuvant radiation treatment may decrease surgical morbidity and lead to long-term cure.
