Vestibular gland
is where we are.
00:03
We’re in the outskirts of the
vagina, we're by the vulvar region.
00:07
At first, in the
vestibular region,
we are looking at
certain glands here.
00:12
Oftentimes in a
secondhand clock,
the Bartholin glands are located
and described as being four
o’clock and eight o’clock.
00:19
Picture that for me, please.
00:22
That is where, normally,
these glands are located.
00:24
What may then happen is that the
duct may then become obstructed.
00:27
And when it does so,
it will undergo an
inflammatory process,
may become infected,
and may result in an
abscess formation.
00:36
And so therefore, management
of our Bartholin gland cyst
would be drainage.
00:42
It produces pain and local
discomfort because of the location
of a Bartholin’s
cyst or gland cyst.
00:49
Infection and abscesses,
oftentimes, the organism
that you might find here
would be something like
in the Neisseria species.
00:58
Vestibular adenitis.
01:00
What this means is that
the vestibular gland,
the vulvar vestibular gland
itself is undergoing inflammation.
01:06
Chronic, recurrent.
01:08
And inflammation produces
small ulcerations.
01:12
This is then referred to as
being your vestibular adenitis.
01:15
The image that you’re seeing here
is showing you the vulvar region in
which it’s undergoing inflammation.
