Vulvovaginal-gingival syndrome

Abstract

Vulvovaginal-gingival syndrome is a distinct variant of classic lichen planus frequently associated with mucocutaneous scarring and vaginal stricture formation, therefore early diagnosis and treatment through a multidisciplinary approach is essential. Management is challenging and is characterised by wide variation in treatments and lack of evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Literature review with particular regard to therapeutic approaches is performed with a view towards a cooperative treatment study.
