Nonvenereal dermatoses may not be restricted to genitalia alone; it may affect other body sites and mucous membranes as well. Dermatoses involving genital areas are not necessarily sexually transmitted. Skin lesions of the genitalia may be physiological, venereal, or nonvenereal in origin. Studies on genital dermatoses of only nonvenereal and noninfectious origin among adults are not commonly documented in India.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The objectives of this study were to determine the clinical pattern and frequency of noninfectious nonvenereal genital dermatoses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 261 patients with noninfectious nonvenereal genital dermatoses attending tertiary care hospital were enrolled from August 2019\u2013July 2020. Cases of more than 18 years of age who had given informed valid consent were included in the study, whereas venereal or infectious dermatoses were excluded from this study. The diagnosis was established based on a detailed history, examination, biopsy, and relevant investigations. Data collection was done using predesigned pro forma, and analysis was perfomed using MS Excel.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Maximum participants were middle aged with a mean age of 43.38 \u00b1 9.45 years. The most common nonvenereal genital dermatoses were vitiligo (23.37%), followed by physiological conditions (19%\u201392%), papulosquamous dermatosis (18.77%), lichen simplex chronicus (16.48%), premalignant conditions (6.51%), vesiculobullous conditions and benign conditions (4.98%) each, adverse cutaneous drug reactions (4.21%), and malignant conditions (0.77%). About 78.54% of participants had dermatosis over genitalia only. Focal vitiligo was the most common dermatosis involving only genitalia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study is novel as participants enrolled only of noninfectious, nonvenereal genital dermatoses among males.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijstd.ijstd_70_23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,6]],"date-time":"2024-06-06T08:08:07Z","timestamp":1717661287000},"page":"39-43","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["A cross-sectional study of noninfectious \u2013 nonvenereal genital dermatoses among adult males at tertiary care hospital in South Gujarat"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"45","author":[{"given":"Brijesh Vinubhai","family":"Parmar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology, Government Medical College, Surat, Gujarat, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hardik","family":"Tandel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology, Government Medical College, Surat, Gujarat, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1-20240831","article-title":"The Nonvenereal Diseases of the Genitals:Etiology, Differential Diagnosis, and Therapy","author":"Callomon","year":"1956","journal-title":"Springfield, Ill.:Thomas"},{"key":"R3-20240831","first-page":"68","article-title":"A study of 200 cases of genital lesions of non-venereal origin","volume":"64","author":"Acharya","year":"1998","journal-title":"Indian J Dermatol Venereol Leprol"},{"key":"R4-20240831","first-page":"18","article-title":"Non-Venereal dermatoses of male genital region-Prevalence and pattern in a referral centre in South India","volume":"46","author":"Karthikeyan","year":"2001","journal-title":"Indian J Dermatol"},{"key":"R5-20240831","first-page":"32","article-title":"Clinico-Epidemiological profile of women with non-venereal vulval diseases:A hospital-Based observational study","volume":"17","author":"Joshi","year":"2019","journal-title":"NJDVL"},{"key":"R7-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"129","DOI":"10.4103\/0253-7184.142408","article-title":"A study of pattern of nonvenereal genital dermatoses of male attending skin OPD at a tertiary care center","volume":"35","author":"Saraswat","year":"2014","journal-title":"Indian J Sex Transm Dis AIDS"},{"key":"R11-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"726","DOI":"10.1258\/0956462991913402","article-title":"Pearly penile papules:A common cause of concern","volume":"10","author":"Sonnex","year":"1999","journal-title":"Int J STD AIDS"},{"key":"R14-20240831","first-page":"157","article-title":"Balanitis and vulvitis plasma cellularis","volume":"111","author":"Zoon","year":"1955","journal-title":"Dermatologica"},{"key":"R17-20240831","first-page":"71.1","article-title":"The genital, perianal and umbilical regions","author":"Bunker","year":"2010","journal-title":"Rook's Textbook of Dermatology"},{"key":"R18-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"49","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0536.1998.tb05642.x","article-title":"Frictional sweat dermatitis","volume":"38","author":"Ramam","year":"1998","journal-title":"Contact Dermatitis"},{"key":"R19-20240831","first-page":"1","article-title":"Studies in contact dermatitis.
