Article Synopsis
- Lichen planus (LP) and lichen sclerosus (LS) are common skin conditions affecting the vulva, but they can be challenging to diagnose due to different appearances and biopsy sizes.
- This study reviewed cases from 2012 to 2022, analyzing clinical details like age, symptoms, and biopsy results to differentiate between LP and LS.
- The findings revealed distinct clinical features and histopathological characteristics for each condition, highlighting that while classic LS is easier to identify, some atypical cases can resemble LP, emphasizing the importance of careful examination for accurate diagnosis.
