[Chronic pseudo-erythroplasic balanitis and vulvitis: histological study (author's transl)]

A case of pseudoerythroplasic vulvitis with histological features similar to purpuric telangiectasic and lichenoid balanitis is reported. The plasma cell infiltrate is usually discrete in these cases of chronic pseudoerythroplasic vulvitis and balanitis (CPVB). The authors suggest that these GPVB and Zoon's balanitis may represent different stages in the course of a same pathological process.
