Secondary vulvar hyperkeratosis

Introduction to secondary keratosis Secondary hyperkeratosis of the female genital area refers to abnormal thickening of the stratum corneum, often accompanied by granular layer and acanthosis. The skin is characterized by infiltration and hypertrophy, deep texture, leathery or bark-like, and can be scaly, pigmented, caused by repeated scratching and rubbing, often secondary to pruritic skin disease. Under normal circumstances, the female vaginal mucosa has no granular layer and stratum corneum, and the female genital secondary keratosis occurs with granular layer and keratinized layer. The vulva, labia majora and other skin or skin mucosal migration sites are significantly hyperkeratotic, granular layer, acanthosis thickening, lymphocytes and other infiltration in the dermis. At the same time, pathological changes of some primary diseases can be seen. Under normal circumstances, the female yin mucosa has no granule layer and stratum corneum, and the female genital secondary keratosis is granule layer and keratinized layer, while the vulva, labia majora and other skin or skin mucosa are obviously hyperkeratotic. Granular layer, thickening of the spinous layer, infiltration of lymphocytes in the dermis, and pathological changes of some primary diseases. basic knowledge Sickness ratio: 0.0001% Susceptible people: women Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: urinary tract fungal infection

Secondary vaginal hyperkeratosis

Cause

Any female genital itching skin disease can cause secondary keratosis of the secondary female genital. Common diseases include the following diseases:

1. Female yin chronic contact dermatitis.

2. Female genital chronic eczema, dermatitis.

3. Female genital neurodermatitis.

4. Female pruritus.

5. Female genital lichen planus.

6.FOX-F0rdyce disease.

7. Hemorrhoids.

Pathogenesis

Under normal circumstances, the female yin mucosa has no granule layer and stratum corneum, and the female genital secondary keratosis is granule layer and keratinized layer, while the vulva, labia majora and other skin or skin mucosa are obviously hyperkeratotic. Granular layer, thickening of the spinous layer, infiltration of lymphocytes in the dermis, and pathological changes of some primary diseases.

Secondary vaginal hyperkeratosis prevention

The disease involves a wide range and belongs to a collection of systemic diseases. The cause and allergies, infections, and non-infectious stimuli (such as the use of poor quality sanitary napkins) and hygiene can cause the disease. Therefore, the prevention measures focus on personal hygiene, often clean the vulva, avoid the disease caused by infection, avoid contact with pollen-induced allergies when going to the park during spring and summer, and use high-quality hygiene products to reduce the prevalence of the disease. Do a good job in preventing the cause and actively treating the primary lesion.

Secondary vaginal hyperkeratosis complications Complications, urinary tract fungal infections

1. Bacterial infection is an acute systemic infection caused by pathogenic bacteria or conditional pathogens invading the blood circulation, producing toxins and other metabolites. Clinically, chills, fever, rash, joint pain and hepatosplenomegaly are Features, some may have septic shock and migratory lesions. An acute systemic infection caused by a pathogenic microorganism invading the blood from a wound or an infected lesion in the body. Clinically, some patients may also have irritability, cold limbs and purpura, rapid pulse rate, rapid breathing, and decreased blood pressure. Especially in the elderly, children, those with chronic diseases or immunocompromised, those who are not treated promptly and have complications, can develop sepsis or sepsis.

Second, fungal infectious diseases are classified into four categories according to the parts of the fungus that invade the human body: superficial mycosis, dermatophytosis, subcutaneous tissue mycosis and systemic fungal diseases. The former two are collectively referred to as superficial mycosis, the latter two Also known as deep mycosis.

Secondary vaginal hyperkeratosis symptoms Common symptoms Itching scaly skin infiltration female genital perineum appears red...

In addition to the primary disease, long-term itching, scratching can cause perineum, labia majora skin hypertrophy, lichen-like changes and hyperkeratosis, white scales appear, long-term repeated stimulation of the labia minora, clitoris can be hypertrophied due to infiltration hypertrophy, The patient is extremely painful.

Secondary keratosis examination

1, vaginal secretions check.

2, histopathological examination. Under normal circumstances, the female yin mucosa has no granule layer and stratum corneum, and the female genital secondary keratosis is granule layer and keratinized layer, while the vulva, labia majora and other skin or skin mucosa are obviously hyperkeratotic. Granular layer, thickening of the spinous layer, infiltration of lymphocytes in the dermis, and pathological changes of some primary diseases.

Diagnosis and diagnosis of secondary vaginal hyperkeratosis

According to the clinical features of this disease, it should be differentiated from vulvar sclerosing moss. The exact cause of the disease is not clear. Histopathological features are epidermal hyperkeratosis and follicular keratin embolism. Epidermal spine thinning is accompanied by basal cell liquefaction and degeneration. The cells are reduced, and the epithelial feet become dull or disappear. The main symptom is itching of the lesion, but it is lighter than the squamous epithelial cell hyperplasia, and even individual patients have no itching symptoms. The lesions are often located in the labia majora, labia minora, clitoris foreskin, posterior labia and perianal, and are mostly symmetrical.
