title: Crohn's disease of the vulva.
abstract: We have reported a case of Crohn's disease of the vulva, an unusual manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease. The initial management of this condition should be medical, using antibiotics and established regimens to control gastrointestinal symptoms. Surgical therapy is appropriate when medical management fails, as it did in our patient.
