Abstract
A patient was referred to our vulvar outpatient clinic because of a vaginal ulceration that persisted for 3 years and that had been unresponsive to any prescribed therapy. After a possible association was found with nicorandil therapy, this medication was stopped. Thereafter, the ulceration fully healed within 6 months.
