Abstrakt:	Invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva is predominantly a disease of postmenopausal woman with a mean age of approximately 65 years. After treatment for cervical cancer patients have an increased risk of developing second squamous cell malignancy of the lower genital tract. This study reports the case of a patient with double malignancy—invasive cervical cancer and invasive vulvar cancer. She underwent radical hysterectomy, bilateral adnexectomy and pelvic bilateral lymphadenectomy and at the same time radical vulvectomy and bilateral inguinal lymphadenectomy. After surgery she was referred to radiotherapy. The postoperative course was uneventful and at 14 months of follow-up, the patient showed no evidence of recurrence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
