Cancer of the vagina, a rare kind of cancer in women, is a disease in which malignant cells are found in the tissues of the vagina.

adenocarcinoma


Adenocarcinoma is more often found in women between the ages of 12 and 30, and accounts for 5-10 percent of all vaginal cancers.


A rare form of cancer called clear cell adenocarcinoma results from the use of the drug DES (diethylstilbestrol) given to pregnant women between 1945 and 1970 to keep them from miscarrying.
Other types of vaginal cancer include:
malignant melanoma
leiomyosarcoma
rhabdomyosarcoma

bleeding or discharge not related to menstrual periods
difficult or painful urination
pain during intercourse
pain in the pelvic area
constipation

Even if a woman has had a hysterectomy, she still has a chance of developing vaginal cancer. The symptoms of vaginal cancer may resemble other conditions or medical problems. Consult a physician for diagnosis."
