Abstract:
We herein present a case of bullous lichen planus in a 56-year-old female. She had had a generalized eruption of lichen planus with violaceus papules and plaques. many of which had been surmounted by vesicles and bullae. The histopathologic findings of a bulla revealed hyperkeratosis, irregular acanthosis, subepidermal bulla and upper dermal band-like cell infiltration. The patient had been treated with dapsone but the lesions had not been significantly improved.
