Abstract:
Lichen planus is an inflammatory disorder that affects the skin, mucous membrane, nails and hair. According to the literature, lichen planus on the palms and/or soles occurs rarely and does not usually have classical clinical features. We report a case of lichen planus in a 26-year-old man, who presented with papules on his palms and soles.
