摘要

外阴瘙痒是指影响外生殖器和会阴区域皮肤和粘膜表面的瘙痒。它最常与感染、炎症性皮肤疾病或肿瘤有关。由于肛门生殖器区域独特的解剖和生理特征,该区域的临床表现往往是微妙的或不典型的,这可能使诊断和治疗复杂化。由于外阴瘙痒可能非常痛苦,及时识别和适当的干预对提高患者的生活质量至关重要。当评估外阴瘙痒患者时,综合的临床方法是必不可少的。这包括详细的病史、重点体检和相关的诊断测试。管理应包括消除促成或加剧因素和针对根本原因的治疗。本文综述了外阴瘙痒的常见原因,强调了诊断方法并概述了目前的治疗策略。强调以患者为中心的个性化管理计划的重要性。

Chronic vulvar itch: diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

Vulvar pruritus refers to itching affecting the skin and mucosal surfaces of the external genital and perineal regions. It is most frequently associated with infections, inflammatory skin disorders, or neoplastic conditions. Due to the distinctive anatomical and physiological features of the anogenital area, clinical manifestations in this region are often subtle or atypical, which can complicate both diagnosis and management. Because vulvar itch can be highly distressing, timely identification and appropriate intervention are crucial for improving patient quality of life. A comprehensive clinical approach is essential when evaluating patients with vulvar pruritus. This includes a detailed medical history, focused physical examination, and relevant diagnostic testing. Management should involve elimination of contributing or exacerbating factors and treatment directed at the underlying cause. This review article discusses the common causes of vulvar pruritus, emphasizing the diagnostic approach and outlining current treatment strategies. The importance of an individualized patient-centered management plan is emphasized.
