Abstract:
:Patients with urogenital complaints are frequently encountered by family practitioners, gynecologists, and dermatologists. This review article provides practical information regarding normal anatomy and embryology of the vulva, followed by a summary of procedural techniques. The new classifications of vulvar inflammatory and intraepithelial neoplasm proposed by the ISSVD are used as guidelines to review the wide spectrum of diseases involving this organ.
