Abstract:
We present two cases of oral lichen planus associated with chronic liver diseases. One patient was a 56-year-old man that had advanced liver cirrhosis with hepatitis B viral infection, and the other, a daughter of patient 1, was identified as chronic active hepatitis with hepatitis B viral infection. Clinical and histopathological features of oral lesions were consistent with lichen planus in both cases.
