Lentigo of the mucous membrane: harmless, persistent, irregular and blurred, symptom-free, brown-black lentigo of the vulva, persisting unchanged for several years (annual clinical controls are recommended).
Lentigo of the mucosa: harmless lentigo ofthe vulva which has persisted unchanged for several years, irregular and blurredly limited, symptomless, brown-black lentigo of the vulva (on the left side of the labia majora overlapping the thigh bend, sign of vitiligo).
Lentigo of the mucosa: harmless lentigo of the labia minora, persisting unchanged for several years, irregular and blurred, symptom-free, brown-black lentigo of the labia minora (detailed picture) .
