Anaplastic carcinoma of the vulva is an extremely rare and highly aggressive form of vulvar cancer. It’s characterised by cancer cells that have lost all cellular characteristics of their origin, making them appear undifferentiated or ‘anaplastic’. This type of cancer tends to grow rapidly and spread quickly to other parts of the body.
Many sufferers of anaplastic carcinoma of the vulva struggle because they feel that their disease doesn’t have the same level of awareness as more common cancers. Without a Ribbon is an Australian non-profit organisation that believes that rare cancers should never go unnoticed. We aim to provide a detailed set of resources and information for anyone suffering from rare cancers such as anaplastic carcinoma of the vulva. We have recently created an anaplastic carcinoma of the vulva resource page to help sufferers understand their disease. It covers the symptoms, available treatments and other important information relating to vulva cancers.
We hope that this resource page will help you or a friend/family member to learn about their illness and aid them through their battle with the disease.
