Which investigations are recommended for confirming a diagnosis of vulval cancer in primary care?

Investigations for confirming vulval cancer diagnosis in primary care:

In primary care, there are no specific diagnostic investigations recommended to confirm vulval cancer. Instead, the key action is to identify unexplained vulval lumps or ulcerations and promptly refer the patient using a suspected cancer pathway referral for specialist assessment and diagnosis.

Physical examination findings of an unexplained vulval lump or ulceration should prompt urgent referral rather than investigations in primary care.
