The first case of this kind of illness was described in 1875 by Thomas and A. Weir, under the names folliculitis vulvaris and psoriasis vulvaris. Naibolee's detailed treatment of this suffering belongs to Reclus and Weir (1887 and 1888). Pozzi and Michaux see this sickness only as a type of senile changes in the mucous membrane. The authors, on the contrary, think that there is no relation between catarrhal changes and leucoplasia.
