Gartner’s cyst aged 23-48

Concerning epidemiology:

“Condylomas …their incidence has increased since the 1960s. The incidence is much higher in women than in men. They often occur on the mucosal epithelium of the vagina. However, because condylomas are often subclinical and not reported, their true incidence remains unknown.”p. 296, Vaginal tumors

“Squamous cell carcinoma comprises up to 85% of vaginal carcinomas and accounts for 1-2% of all malignant tumours of the female genital tract. The mean age of patients is about 60 years.”p. 293

“Glandular tumours and their precursors… Epidemiology-The occurrence of cases of vaginal clear cell adenocarcinoma associated with in utero exposure to diethylstilbestrol (DES) was responsible for an increase in incidence of adenocarcinoma in young women from the 1970s. In the early 1970s the peak incidence of clear cell adenoca rcinoma was around 19 years, the youngest patient being 8 years. With the ageing of the DES-exposed cohort, the peak incidence has been shifting towards an older age group.”p.297, Vaginal tumors

“Epidemiology Adenosis has been reported to occur in approximately 30% of women after in u t e ro exposure to DES. Congenital adenosis may be present in up to 8% of unexposed women. Adenosis has been described after laser vaporization or intravaginal application of 5-fluorouracil.”p. 299 Vaginal tumors

Mesenchymal tumours, Vaginal sarcomas

“Epidemiology Sarcomas are rare and comprise <2% of all malignant vaginal neoplasms”p. 302, Vaginal tumors

“Epidemiology-Sarcoma botryoides is the most common vaginal sarcoma and occurs almost exclusively in children and infants < 5 years of age.” P., Vaginal tumors

“Epidemiology-Although leiomyosarcoma is the most common vaginal sarcoma in the adult and the second most common vaginal sarcoma, only approximately 50 cases have been reported. They accounted for only 5 of 60 cases in the only large series of vaginal smooth muscle tumours.” P 303 Vaginal tumors.
