Abstract

Papillary squamotransitional cell carcinoma (PSTCC) of vagina is not a common disease. Especially primary neoplasm, which is not associated with carcinoma of urinary tract is very rare. To our knowledge, there have been only three reported cases of primary vaginal PSTCC without the history of urothelial carcinoma. Here, we report primary vaginal PSTCC accompanied by cervical squamous carcinoma in situ without the history of urothelial carcinoma with brief review of literature.
