Here we reported a case of plantar lichen planus where there was a history of discharge of dark grains from the sole of foot and diagnosing the disease as eumycetoma of dark grains repeated antifungal therapy could not resolve the lesions and histopathologically it showed the classical pictures of lichen planus. Collaborating the clinical and histological features we have diagnosed the case as perforating lichen planus but Verhoeff-Van Gieson stain could not elucidate the perforating channel which ot difficult to delineate and often missed. So, we have put the diagnosis of plantar lichen planus and treated with intramuscular triamcinolone and the lesions resolved.展开更多

We present here a case of actinic lichen planus with papules and plaques over the malar region and dorsum of nose- a rare presentation of this entity.展开更多
