ABSTRACT
Plasma cell cheilitis is an idiopathic, benign, inflammatory mucosal condition characterized histologically by a dense band-like infiltrate of plasma cells in the upper dermis of the mucosa. In addition to the lips, the disease can affect the penis, vulva, buccal mucosa, palate, gingiva, tongue, epiglottis, and larynx. Plasma cell cheilitis of the lip appears as a circumscribed, flat to slightly elevated, eroded area, usually on the lower lip of an elderly person. We report a 70-year-old man who had a well-demarcated, erythematous, erosive lesion on his lower lip for 1 year. A biopsy specimen showed an upper dermal infiltrate that consisted mainly of plasma cells. Oral griseofulvin, 500mg/day, was begun, and 8 weeks later the lesion showed marked improvement.
