Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare "Frozen-Section Directed Excision", which has been a proven method of surgery used in dermatology, versus the current, standard method called "Wide Local Excision" to treat high-grade vulvar dysplasia.

Conditions

  • Vulvar Neoplasm
  • Dysplasia Vulvar

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Frozen-Section Directed Excision

Frozen-Section Directed Excision (FSDE) is a surgical technique with evaluation of margin status during the surgical procedure, similar to the established Mohs Surgical Technique. The use of FSDE may ensure negative margins, decrease unnecessary excision of healthy tissue and has the potential to greatly reduce positive margins.

PROCEDURE

Wide Local Excision

Standard of care surgical technique utilized for VIN 2, VIN3, VIN 2/3 or High-grade Dysplasia NOS
