Abstract

A Case of Inverse Lichen Planus

Lichen planus (LP) is a pruritic, papular eruption characterized by its violaceous color and polygonal shape. It is most commonly found on the flexor surfaces of the upper extremities, on the genitalia, and on the mucous membranes. We herein report a classic case of LP in an inverse distribution.
