Plasma cell vulvitis: a circuitous route to treatment efficacy

 

Disclosure statement

No funding was received for the production of this manuscript. There is no conflict of interest. The author is the sole contributor and the work is not being presented/published elsewhere. The author cared for the patient, performed the review, and made all decisions regarding what data to abstract and present. The IRB at our institution exempted this report from review due to the retrospective nature of the review of this single patient.

Precis

Topical steroids should be offered initially for symptomatic plasma cell vulvits and surgery avoided.

Teaching points

  1. Biopsy and histology are key to the diagnosis of plasma cell vulvitis.

  2. We recommend managing plasma cell vulvitis initially with topical steroids followed by maintenance application.
