摘要

Background

Lipschütz’s acute vulvar ulceration is the vulvar manifestation of a systemic pathology. It is first reported in 1912 and is a non-sexually acquired condition characterized by symmetrical genital ulcers. It is an underdiagnosed condition with poor cases described in the literature. The main symptom is pain.

Case Presentation

We describe the case report of a 14-year-old patient with painful genital ulcers associated with flu-like symptoms. The gynaecological examination showed the presence of multiple vulvar lesions. The diagnosis of Lipschütz ulcers was a diagnosis of exclusion.

Conclusion

This rare condition must not be underestimated because of any psychophysical implication. It is mandatory to reassure the patient and her family of its benign course.
