[Vulvar dystrophies].

The paper is a histo-clinical analysis of 75 cases of vulvar dystrophy defined so far as leukoplakia or kraurosis vulvae. The series included 31 cases of hypertrophic dystrophy, 34 cases of lichen sclerosus and 10 cases of mixed dystrophy. In 52 cases changes developed after menopause. In two cases cellular atypia was found. Itching was the most frequent physical symptom. In the paper current views on the connection vulvar dystrophy with the development of invasive vulvar carcinoma have also been discussed.
