Genital dermatoses, with their highly varied etiologies—inflammatory, infectious, tumoral, or traumatic—are common in both women and men. This book compiles essential and current data on genital dermatological pathology in both women and men. It is intended for all physicians, whether practicing or in training, and particularly for dermatologists, gynecologists, and urologists wishing to learn or refine their knowledge in the many facets of this shared field. An introductory chapter, entitled "The Fundamentals," covers the necessary knowledge in embryology, anatomy, and histology of the external genitalia. It also offers a practical and respectful approach to examining the genital region, a delicate area both symbolically and physically. Uniquely, the authors, writing collaboratively, have chosen to address the female and male aspects of each genital dermatosis simultaneously, highlighting both their commonalities and the specific characteristics of each sex.
