The overall prevalence of vulval involvement in women with lichen planus is unknown. In a series of 37 women with lichen planus, we found vulval lesions in 19 (51%). Vulval lesions are often chronic and may undergo malignant change. All patients presenting with cutaneous or oral lesions of lichen planus should be questioned about, and examined specifically for, signs of genital involvement. Long-term follow-up of these patients is necessary.
扁平苔藓女性患者外阴受累的总体患病率尚不清楚。在一组37例扁平苔藓女性患者中，我们发现19例（51%）有外阴病变。外阴病变通常为慢性，可能会发生恶变。所有出现扁平苔藓皮肤或口腔病变的患者都应询问并专门检查有无生殖器受累迹象。对这些患者进行长期随访是必要的。
