ABSTRACT
Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus is a benign, chronic lymphocyte-mediated dermatosis that causes substantial discomfort and morbidity, most commonly in adult women. It has predilection for the anogenital region, but extragenital lesions also occur, mainly on the upper trunk, axillae and buttocks, as slightly sclerotic white scar-like lesions with a wrinkled surface. Extragenital lesions are clinically similar to genital lesions, but due to their rarity and lack of symptoms, clinicians often make a misdiagnosis. We herein present a case of extragenital lichen sclerosus et atrophicus, which began on the upper back and spread to other areas displaying typical wrinkled, white scar-like lesions.
