Analyzing retrospectively our results in treating 113 cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva during the years 1973-1985, 5-years survival was identical with 70 per cent in 53 cases with radical vulvectomy and bilateral inguino-femoral lymphonodectomy as standard therapy, as well as in 60 cases with individualized treatment. These recent modifications had better anatomic results and improved the quality of life considerably. Therefore in author's opinion standardized therapy of vulvar vancer is no longer justified.
