Vulvar diseases, including chronic pruritus and vulvodynia, are increasingly recognized. A specialized vulvar clinic improves diagnosis and treatment for these often-overlooked gynecological conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecologic Oncology
  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Vulvar diseases historically received limited attention from gynecologists.
  • Patient timidity and complex nomenclature complicated diagnosis and treatment.
  • Establishment of the International Society for the Study of Vulvar Disease (ISSVD) and specialized clinics increased awareness.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the findings from the first year of a specialized vulvar clinic.
  • To identify common vulvar conditions and their presenting symptoms.
  • To evaluate the diagnostic yield and treatment outcomes for vulvar disorders.

Summary:

  • The most frequent symptom was chronic vulvar pruritus, often linked to non-neoplastic epithelial disorders.
  • Vulvar vestibulitis and vulvodynia were primary diagnoses for vulvar pain, sometimes associated with HPV.

  • Epidermal cysts were the most common finding for suspected vulvar tumors; HPV lesions were confirmed in 75.5% of cases.

    • Impact:

    • The vulvar clinic consolidates diagnosis and treatment, enhancing ambulatory gynecological services.
    • Specialized units improve understanding and interest in vulvar diseases.
    • CO2 laser treatment effectively eradicated HPV lesions in 93% of cases.
