TO PATHOLOGY OF VAGINAL CYST

Not so long ago, vaginal cysts were considered a rare pathological finding in gynecology. So, for example, prof. Horvits in his 78 manual says that they are extremely rare, and Dr. Chudovskiy, describing a case of vaginal cyst from the Horvits clinic ("Med. Vasti." 78), finds only three similar cases in Russian literature ( Gorvitsa, Yastrebova and Tarnovsky). Since then, she has been little enriched by reports on this issue, judging by the medical sources that have been reviewed by me: "Doctor", "Medical Review" and "Russian Medicine" for the entire time of their existence. In addition, the cases described by Russian authors were either not investigated histologically at all, or, if the latter was done, then the explanation of the presented microscopic pictures does not always seem to be sound and appropriate to the conclusions. Meanwhile, the histological structure is the main criterion for explaining the ethiology of this neoplasm, which still does not seem to be completely established, perhaps due to the lack of microscopic descriptions.
