Summary
[edit]DescriptionGynecology (1916) (14592487807).jpg |
English: ESTHIOMENE. The labia are hypertrophied, resembling somewhat elephantiasis. There is extensive ulceration of all the parts. The ulcerated areas have a tendency to be symmetric on the two sides.
This is a disease about which we have very little definite knowledge. The name is adapted from the Greek word meaning to gnaw out, so that it corresponds practically to the term rodent ulcer. The disease consists of an extensive inflammation and ulceration of the vulva. The parts are greatly swollen and covered with superficial sloughing areas. These areas are apt to be at the points of contact of the swollen labia, so that there is a certain symmetry in the ulcerations. The parts are bathed with a foul purulent discharge. The origin of this disease is obscure. It is seen mostly in prostitutes, and, though it is thought to have some possible relationship to syphilis, it does not yield at all to syphilitic treatment. It is regarded by some to be the result of a lymphstasis in the external genitals, as it sometimes follows the excision of inguinal buboes. It is often associated with stricture of the rectum. |
