title: [Pruritus vulvae].
abstract: Vulvogenital pruritus is due to infectious, dystrophic or dermatological causes. Diagnoses of "senile" or "psychogenic" pruritus do not obviate the need for regular surveillance. Treatment is easy if the cause is duly recognised. It is more difficult in essential forms and the authors describe the principles and methods of symptomatic treatment.
