Vulvar white lesions

White lesions of the vulva, also called white lesions of the vulva, white spots of the vulva, or malnutrition of the vulva, were previously considered to be vascular nutrition disorders, but with further understanding of the disease, the above changes were not found, but the pigmentation of the vulva skin and mucosal tissues And degenerative lesions belong to the category of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia, including sclerosing moss and squamous epithelial hyperplasia. The former is a disease characterized by atrophy and thinning of the vulva and perianal skin. It is the most common white lesion of the vulva. It is seen at any age, more common around the age of 40, followed by young girls. It is more common in postmenopausal women abroad, and rarely progresses to Invasive cancer. The latter was once referred to as proliferative malnutrition, which is a main symptom of vulvar pruritus and unknown causes of benign hyperplasia of squamous epithelial cells. It is more common in women before the age of 50, and more common in postmenopausal women reported abroad. The malignant transformation rate is 2% to 5%.
