Coexisting Morphea and Extragenital Lichen Sclerosus ET Atrophicus in a Female Patient
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Morphea and lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA) are two entities that are characterized clinically by indurated and sclerotic plaques with overlying dyschromic skin and pathologically by an inflammatory dermal infiltrate and fibrosis. The exact relationship between morphea and LSA is debateful. Some authors consider LSA a superficial variant of morphea whereas others consider them as two unrelated entities. Here we present a case of co-existing plaque morphea and linear morphea with concomitant lesions of extra genital LSA occurring at the same site in an adult female.
