Tiivistelmä
Recurrent vulvar ulceration is usually caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 and 2 infections. Differential diagnosis includes erosive lichen planus, lichen sclerosus, mucous membrane pemphigoid, pemphigus, and Behcet's disease. Lipschutz acute vulvar ulcer, occurring in adolescent women, is a non-recurring, rare ulcer associated with an immunologic reaction to a distant source of infection or inflammation (1). We report here the first case of human herpes virus 7 (HHV-7) in recurrent vulvar ulceration.
