Oral lichen planus which is one of the most common oral mucosal diseases in adults, it has been rarely described in children. There are very reports in the literature regarding oral lichen planus in children, here we report a case of intraoral lesions of lichen planus. Lichen planus should be considered in the differential diagnosis of hyperkeratotic or erosive lesions of the oral mucosa in children.

Background: The limited understanding of factors influencing the disease progression of oral lichen planus (OLP) poses challenges in delivering effective and personalised treatment for this condition, known to increase the risk of oral cancer and adversely impact patient quality of life.
Objective: This study aimed to systematically identify clinical predictors of disease severity in OLP patients.
Methods: This cross-sectional and single-site prospective study was conducted between December 2021 and February 2024 in the Departments of Oral Medicine and Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.

Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory disease (ISD) affecting skin, mucosa, nail, and hair. Previous studies demonstrated a pivotal role of type 1 immunity in LP, as infiltrating T cells trigger apoptosis and necroptosis in the epidermis. In this study, we investigated the role of DAPK1 in LP with special focus on its role in mediating cell death and inflammation.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare clinicopathological features and immunostaining for cytokeratin-10 between oral lichen planus and oral lichenoid lesions.
Design: This was a retrospective longitudinal study comparing lichen planus and oral lichenoid lesions diagnosed at the Oral Pathological Anatomy Service that analyzed sociodemographic and clinicopathological data and CK10 expression. Chi-square tests, Fisher's exact tests and Mann-Whitney tests or Student's t tests were used when appropriate, and p values < 0.
