“…It thus cannot be overemphasized that a meticulous visual examination of the external genitalia, coupled with a liberal biopsy of any suspicious areas, is the only means of detecting its lesions. Toluidine blue staining of the vulva may not be reliable as areas of fissures, cracks, and abrasions retain dyes, and a false positive rate of 17% has been reported [36]. To avoid this error, a colposcope could be used before and after staining [37].…”

“…This view correlates with our finding that it "may be impossible to predict future malignant change by histological examination" (O'Flynn and Mullaney, 1967) in urinary bladder leukoplakia. Toluidine blue was used by Coliins, Hanson and Theriot (1966) for the detection of the onset of neoplasia in leukoplakia of the vulva: this might be a possible diagnostic aid in long-standing vesical cases, but has not been tried in this series.…”

“…Collins et al (1966) reported a high degree of accuracy using the toluidine blue stain to paint the vulva, then removing the stain not taken up by the unaffected tissues with acetic acid. The type of biopsy is not important, but the site of the biopsy is.…”
