COMMON SYMPTOMS OF VULVAR CANCER YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF. The vulva is the area of skin that surrounds the urethra and vagina, including the clitoris and labia. Vulvar cancer is a type of cancer that occurs on the outer surface area of the female genitalia. Vulvar cancer commonly forms as a lump or sore on the vulva that often causes itching. Though it can occur at any age, it is most commonly diagnosed in older adults. Its treatment usually involves surgery to remove the cancer and a small amount of surrounding healthy tissue. Sometimes vulvar cancer surgery requires removing the entire vulva. The earlier vulvar cancer is diagnosed, the less likely it is that extensive surgery is needed for treatment.
