Lichen planus is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disorder that is seen in skin and oral mucosa. Definitive etiology for oral lichen planus remains unknown. It may or may not be associated with skin lesions. Different clinical patterns such as reticular, plaque, erosive, bullous, and atrophic are seen in oral mucosa of which bullous lichen planus is a rare entity. We present a unique case of bullous lichen planus in a 20-year-old male without skin manifestations along with the review of literature comprising various case reports of bullous lichen planus.
