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.

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 (LS) refers to a benign, chronic, progressive dermatologic condition that primarily causes anogenital lesions in middle aged women. But LS has been identifi ed in patients of all ages including those in the fi rst years of life. The risk of squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva is 4% to 5% in women with LS, and has been reported to be as high as 7% in some reviews. We recently encountered a case of LS in a post-menopausal woman without hormone therapy. To remind clinicians of the neglected issue of LS, we report a case of LS with literature review.

We herein present a case of rare disease developed in a 43-year-old healthy woman. On her visit, we found several gray colored, well defined, pale, soft, wrinkled atrophic patches on the anterior portion of right upper chest area that is unusual location. The histologic findings showed typical features of lichen sclerosus et atrophicus.
