Abstract

The average postoperative stay for 45 patients undergoing radical vulvectomy with femoral and inguinal lymphadenectomy was 37 days. Five patients were treated with oral zinc sulfate for at least 7 days prior to surgery. The incidence of wound infection was decreased, and the average postoperative stay was reduced to 18 days.
