Vulval Crohn disease is rare and likely under-reported, leading to difficulty in diagnosis and delay in treatment. In this case series, we report the clinical features and discuss therapy in 26 consecutive patients with vulval Crohn disease, with or without documented gastrointestinal disease, presenting between January 2016 and July 2018. We highlight the need for treatment that is in some cases more aggressive than the requirement to manage the patient's gastrointestinal involvement.
外阴克罗恩病较为罕见,且可能报道不足,导致诊断困难和治疗延误。本病例系列报告了 26 例连续的外阴克罗恩病患者(有或无胃肠道疾病记录)的临床特征,并讨论了其治疗方法,这些患者均于 2016 年 1 月至 2018 年 7 月就诊。我们强调了治疗的必要性,在某些情况下,治疗需要比管理患者的胃肠道受累更具侵略性。
