“…Other immunologic diseases play an important part in the diagnosis of lichen planus. Several studies have shown that these diseases may appear simultaneously or overlapped, which could indicate that a similar etiology or basis could be causing the development of these alterations (Demirci, Altunay, Sarıkaya, & Sakiz, ; Kiyani & Shahroz, ; Sekar, Rai, Karthika, & Laila, ).…”

“…Fewer than 50 cases have been reported in the literature before 2011 (Sekar et al, 2011). There is much controversy over whether these two diseases actually overlap (necessitating the distinction of this overlap syndrome) or if reports are simply coexistent episodes of these two diseases in the same patient.…”

Lichen planus (LP) is an inflammatory skin condition with characteristic clinical and histopathological findings. Classic LP typically presents as pruritic, polygonal, violaceous flat-topped papules and plaques; many variants in morphology and location also exist, including oral, nail, linear, annular, atrophic, hypertrophic, inverse, eruptive, bullous, ulcerative, lichen planus pigmentosus, lichen planopilaris, vulvovaginal, actinic, lichen planus-lupus erythematosus overlap syndrome, and lichen planus pemphigoides. Clinical presentation of the rarer variant lesions may be largely dissimilar to classic LP and therefore difficult to diagnose based solely on clinical examination. However, histopathological examination of LP and LP-variant lesions reveal similar features, aiding in the proper diagnosis of the disease. Management of LP and LP variants aims to control symptoms and to decrease time from onset to resolution; it often involves topical corticosteroids, but varies depending on the severity and location of the lesion. The literature contains an array of reports on the variations in presentation and successful management of LP and its variants. A familiarity with LP and its variants is important in achieving timely recognition and management of the disease.
