Besides its important role in immune response and inflammatory processes the cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) is crucially involved in carcinogenesis. A common polymorphism within the gene encoding IL-6 (IL6) is known to alter IL-6 protein expression and has been associated with patients' prognosis in various malignancies. No data are available with respect to vulvar cancer. Therefore, we determined the prognostic potential of the common -174(G-->C) single nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region of IL6 in a series of patients with this disease.
