Ceska Gynekol. 2022;87(5):324-327. doi: 10.48095/cccg2022324.

Abstract

Objective: Case presentation, differential dia-gnostic, possible therapeutic procedure and a brief literature report.

Case report: An 84-year-old woman was repeatedly examined for chronic extended dermatologic lesion on lower abdomen, external genitals, perianal region, groin and adjacent inner thighs.

Conclusion: Neither colposcopy with dermatovenerologic consultation, nor histopathological examination led to a precise conclusion. Only a special dermatopathologic expertise showed a dia-gnosis of inverse psoriasis with suggested therapy.

Keywords: Psoriasis; psoriasis; vulval lesion.
