Pigmentary disorders and inflammatory lesions of the external genitalia

M Varghese et al. Urol Clin North Am. 1992 Feb.

Abstract

Many cutaneous processes can involve the external genitalia as a part of the general involvement of the skin. Other processes may affect only the genitalia, such as several pigmentary disorders and inflammations. As a result, these conditions may be mistaken for sexually transmitted diseases. It is important to include these conditions in the differential diagnosis.
