Correspondence to: Dr Rachel Challenor Email: rachel{at}challenor.biz

Vulval adhesion is a rare but recognized local complication following genital herpes infection. We believe this is only the second reported case of successful resolution of vulval herpetic adhesion using topical potent corticosteroid as the primary early treatment.

Key Words: HSV • herpes • aciclovir • adhesion • corticosteroid
