Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:Vulvar vestibule is a common term in the medical nomenclature. In our view, this term is inaccurate. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Herein, we provide evidence from embryologic, anatomic, and architectonic textbooks that shows the links between the vestibule and vagina. RESULTS:Our research proves that the term vulvar vestibule does injustice to the area it describes. CONCLUSIONS:The correct term for vulvar vestibule actually is vaginal vestibule.
