Lichen Sclerosus of the Lip. uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • In this case report, we outline a case of a 36-year-old woman who presented to the dermatology clinic with a history of a hypopigmented macule on her lip. After conducting hepatitis C antibody testing and a shave biopsy, the patient was diagnosed with lichen sclerosus. Because of the increased risk for squamous cell carcinoma, she underwent an anogenital exam, where no lesions were found.
