Lichen Planus

Fig 1: Lichen Planus |
Lichen planus is characterised by an itchy, purplish, polygonal, flat-topped rash developing over the
wrists and ankles. A lacy fine network of papules develops in over 60% of the patients.
It is commonly
seen in patients with autoimmune chronic liver disease such as primary biliary cirrhosis and chronic
active hepatitis.

Fig 2: Wickham's Striae |
The presence of Wickham’s striae – a fine, white lacy pattern, over the papules helps in
diagnosis. It usually resolves in 12–18 months.
Patients with widespread disease and intractable itch may
require oral prednisolone.
