Vulvar dermatoses.
Benign and malignant vulvar disorders may look alike, making diagnosis difficult for even experienced vulvologists. Understanding basic principles of differential diagnosis and diagnostic testing is necessary for good medical or surgical management. Skin diseases do not respond quickly even when treatment is appropriate. Therefore it is especially important to establish the correct diagnosis as early as possible. This group of dermatoses demands careful distinction of sometimes subtle differences, but the physician and patient will be rewarded by a sure response to correct therapy.
