    Case Summary
    Provisional diagnosis: Type 3 transformation zone; high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) of the cervix, vagina, and vulva.
     
    Management: LLETZ (type 3 excision) and biopsies for vaginal and vulval lesions.
     
    Histopathology: Cervical histopathology was invasive squamous cell cancer, vaginal histopathology was HSIL-VAIN 3, and vulvar histopathology was HSIL-VIN 3.
     
    Comment: Multifocal neoplasias may be seen in the lower genital tract. The patient had a radical abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy and simple vulvectomy.
