title: Vulvar Ulcers and Erosions: A Clinical Approach.
abstract: Vulvar ulcers have a plethora of potential causes and variable clinical presentations that can prove to be a challenge to any clinician. The terminology of these causes can further add to the difficulty of diagnosis. A clinical approach to diagnosis and management is presented with classification tables and a discussion of the terminology of aphthosis, a common cause of vulvar ulceration.
