LSA of the glans and prepuce of the penis is uncommon. It usually appears as whitish plaques and macules and can progress to orificial narrowing, phimosis and carcinorna. The case presented herein showed distinct papules and nodules on the glans and inner side of the prepuce instead of usual flattened patches. The patient, 24 years old man, was seen first seven months after his initial notice of the illness and has been observed by the authors four years thereafter. For the first year the papuloncdules on the glans were hard in consistence and the glans itself was being contracting, From the third year, the hard papulonodules began to resolve but resulted in greatly contracted glans penis. To observe the diagncsic histopathological finding repeated biopsies were needed.

Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA) is an uncommon condition of the skin with small white macular or atrophic plaques which predominantly affects the genital regions of middle aged and elderly women. We present an atypical case of LSA on a 58 year old woman. The patient had a brownish-black colored patch of 2.5 * 7.0 cm in size on the right clavicular area of one year's duration. The histopatholgy of the lesion disclosed classical findings of LSA. A marked incontinence of pigment is noted in the upper dermis which accounts for the clinical picture of the lesion. She was treated with topical hydrocortisone cream resulting in a marked diminution of pigmentation.

Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disease, usually affecting the female genitalia. Involvement of the oral mucosa is rare, however, it is sometimes the only manifestation of the disease without concurrent genital or skin lesions. We present a case of lichen sclerosus et atrophicus affecting which arrected the lower lip only. We briefly reviewed pertinent literature.

Verrucous carcinoma(VC) is regarded as a rare, histologic variant of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus(LSA) is chronic dermatosis characterized by atrophic white papules or plaques, occurring most commonly on the anogenital skin of both sexes. Genital LSA has been associated with the development of invasive carcinoma, and the most common is SCC. There have been only a few reports of VC within a lesion of penile LSA. We now report a case of VC arising in penile LSA.
