Gross processing

Generally as per skin.

Microscopic examination

Histopathology of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) of vulva (left) with full thickness dysplasia, compared to normal epithelium at right.

Mainly look for squamous vulvar intraepithelial lesions:

  • Low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL):[1]
  • Acanthosis, papillomatosis, and/or atypical koilocytosis in upper layers
  • Usually mild atypia and mitoses, limited to the lower third of stratum spinosum and basale
  • Binucleated epithelial cells
  • High-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL):[1]
  • Enlarged atypical nuclei and mitoses involving middle and upper third of the epithelium.
  • Also telling are atypical mitoses and/or extension in hair follicles and skin appendages.
