Summary

This paper updates physicians on evolving vulvar disease terminologies, including non-neoplastic epithelial disorders and intraepithelial alterations, based on International Society for the Study of Vulvar Disease (ISSVD) classifications. Further improvements in these terms are needed for clear communication.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecologic Pathology
  • Dermatopathology
  • Vulvar Disease Classification

Context:

  • Physicians require updated terminology for accurate vulvar disease diagnosis and management.
  • International Society for the Study of Vulvar Disease (ISSVD) classifications evolve to standardize nomenclature.
  • Previous terminologies for vulvar conditions can cause diagnostic ambiguity.

Purpose:

  • To provide an update on the evolution of vulvar disease terminologies for gynecologists, dermatologists, and pathologists.
  • To illustrate the key steps in the development of current ISSVD classifications.
  • To compare recent ISSVD classifications with prior terminology for non-neoplastic epithelial disorders and intraepithelial alterations.

Summary:

  • The paper reviews the International Society for the Study of Vulvar Disease's (ISSVD) updated classifications for vulvar conditions.

  • It details changes in terminology for non-neoplastic epithelial disorders, intraepithelial alterations, and superficially invasive vulvar carcinoma.
  • The ISSVD's efforts toward a common language are acknowledged, alongside a call for further refinement.

    • Impact:

    • Facilitates clearer international communication and exchange of experiences regarding vulvar diseases.
    • Aids in more precise diagnosis and treatment planning for vulvar conditions.
    • Highlights the ongoing need for standardized and improved terminology in vulvar pathology.
