Highlight
- Molecular classification based on HPV and p53 status identifies distinct prognostic subgroups within early-stage vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (vSCC).
- HPV-negative tumors with TP53 mutations exhibit significantly worse 10-year disease-specific survival and higher recurrence rates, especially groin failures.
- HPV-positive tumors show excellent prognosis with high 10-year survival and low recurrence.
- A tumor-free margin of ≥3 mm confers protective benefit and remains important for HPV-/p53-mutant tumors.
