Palmoplantar Lichen Planus: A Report of four cases Palmoplantar Lichen Planus: Dört olgu sunumu

Lichen planus is a benign, inflammatory and itchy der-matosis that is incurred by skin, skin extensions and mu-cosa. Lichen planus rarely show palmoplantar involve-ment. Since stratum corneum in palmoplantar lichen planus is extremely thick, lesions can be yellow colored instead of the purple colored papules that are classic le-sions. Clinically, it might be confused with psoriasis, sec-ondary syphilis, verruca vulgaris, hyperkeratotic eczema, palmoplantar keratodermas, hyperkeratotic type tinea pedis and xanthomas. In this report, four lichen planus cases were presented who represented palmoplantar in-volvement. J Clin Exp Invest 2011; 2(1): 80-8
