Vulvodynia represents a group of vulvar disorders that can be clinically perplexing. Unfortunately, there are no simple tests for its diagnosis. Patients often are reluctant to report vulvar pain. Some are embarrassed to reveal their perceived "sexual dysfunction" caused by dyspareunia. Others have been told in the past "It's all in you head," or "It's just a yeast infection." Most patients with vulvodynia are seen by multiple practitioners and are placed on a variety of treatments before a correct diagnosis is made. All too often, these treatments are not only ineffective but also damaging. Careful clinical investigation is required for the correct diagnosis and treatment of vulvodynia (Figure 2).
The authors summarized and analysed data on effects and usage of cutting fluids mixable with water in order to determine limits for rapid toxicologic and hygienic evaluation of these fluids if repeatedly cooled. Limitative characteristics are sensibilization and skin irritation caused by cutting fluids mixable with water. Synthetic compounds containing the fluids appeared carcinogenic and therefore require special attention.
