Bullous Lichen Planus Arising in the Skin Graft Donor Site of a Psoriatic Patient

Abstract

The coexistence of psoriasis vulgaris and bullous disorders, particularly bullous pemphigoid, has been described previously. We present an unusual case of bullous lichen planus arising in the skin graft donor site of a psoriatic patient. To our knowledge, such an association has not been reported to date.

A rare presentation of concurrent onset and coexistence of generalized lichen planus and psoriasis in a child

“…[ 2 ] Few reports have highlighted the association of oral, linear, or bullous LP with psoriasis in adults. [ 6 7 8 ] A literature review revealed only two case reports with this association in children. [ 3 4 ] Both children had concurrent vitiligo over which subsequently psoriasis and LP developed.…”

Bullous lichen planus accompanied by elevation of serum anti‐BP180 autoantibody: A possible transitional mechanism to lichen planus pemphigoides

“…1,2 While the former presents vesicles or blisters limited to preceding LP lesions, the latter is characterized by coincidence of LP lesions and LP-independent blistering lesions induced by an autoimmune mechanism against hemidesmosomal protein, such as BP180. 1,2 While the former presents vesicles or blisters limited to preceding LP lesions, the latter is characterized by coincidence of LP lesions and LP-independent blistering lesions induced by an autoimmune mechanism against hemidesmosomal protein, such as BP180.…”

“…Dear Editor, Lichen planus (LP) is characterized by hyperkeratotic polygonal papules and plaques on skin surface and mucosae, and can be classified into several clinical subtypes including blistering variants, such as bullous LP (BLP) and LP pemphigoides (LPP). 1,2 While the former presents vesicles or blisters limited to preceding LP lesions, the latter is characterized by coincidence of LP lesions and LP-independent blistering lesions induced by an autoimmune mechanism against hemidesmosomal protein, such as BP180. Here, we report a case of BLP concomitant with elevation of serum anti-BP180 autoantibody.…”

Colocalization of linear lichen planus and psoriasis vulgaris

“…reported a case of bullous LP arising in the skin graft donor site of a psoriatic patient. [ 9 ] McGimpsey and O’Brien reported oral lichen planus with psoriasis. [ 10 ] Ujiie et al .…”
