Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA) is an inflammatory disease that primarily causes anogenital lesion in middle aged women. We present here a case of facial LSA with an asymptomatic, well-demarcated, whitish to bluish, atrophic patch in a linear pattern on the forehead of a 48-year-old woman. This case showed an atypical clinical presentation and it mimicked en coup de sabre, but the histopathologic results confirmed the diagnosis of LSA.

The superficial variant of morphea is a recently described as an entity that differs in its clinical and histologic presentation from classic morphea. The condition is characterized by minimal to no induration and hypopigmented or hyperpigmented patches, without associated symptoms, systemic involvement, contractures, or atrophy. Histologically, it shows thickened collagen bundles, which restricts to the superficial dermis, sparing the deep dermis and without associated evidence of lichen sclerosus et atrophicus. We present the unique clinical and histopathologic findings in 4-year-old children.

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.

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.
