“…The clinical presentation of OLP seems to be influenced by the concomitant disease: the erosive form has been reported as more commonly associated with CLD (Bagan et al, 1992 Bologa and Valda, 1971;Grupper et al, 1972Tan, 1974a,b Okoki et al, 1990Cottoni etal., 1991Davies et al, 1977Van der Horst et al, 1983Brenner et al, 1979Connelly et al, 1985Tan, 1972Aronson et al, 1978;Miller, 1971;Samman, 1974Neuman-Jensen et al, 1980Neuman-Jensen et al, 1980Lotem et al, 1989;Lee, 1987Shultleworth et al, 1986Rustin, 1986;Lundstr6m et al, 1982Blasberg et al, 1984Kaplan et al, 1995Zijdenbos et al, 1985Gart, 1994;Bermejo Fenoll andLopez Jornet, 1991 Parodi et al, 1995;Brenner et al, 1979Coltoni et al, 1988Tan, 1974;Mann et al, 1982;Porter et al, 1994;Brenner et al, 1979(Rebora et al, 1978.

Lichen planus (LP) is a relatively common disorder of the stratified squamous epithelia, which is, in many ways, an enigma. This paper is the consensus outcome of a workshop held in Switzerland in 1995, involving a selection of clinicians and scientists with an interest in the condition and its management. The oral (OLP) eruptions usually have a distinct clinical morphology and characteristic distribution, but OLP may also present a confusing array of patterns and forms, and other disorders may clinically simulate OLP. Lesions may affect other mucosae and/or skin. Lichen planus is probably of multifactorial origin, sometimes induced by drugs or dental materials, often idiopathic, and with an immunopathogenesis involving T-cells in particular. The etiopathogenesis appears to be complex, with interactions between and among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors, but much has now been clarified about the mechanisms involved, and interesting new associations, such as with liver disease, have emerged. The management of lichen planus is still not totally satisfactory, and there is as yet no definitive treatment, but there have been advances in the control of the condition. There is no curative treatment available; immunomodulation, however, can control the condition. Based on the observed increased risk of malignant development, OLP patients should be offered regular follow-up examination from two to four times annually and asked to report any changes in their lesions and/or symptoms. Follow-up may be particularly important in patients with atrophic/ulcerative/erosive affections of the tongue, the gingiva, or the buccal mucosa. Much more research is required into the genetic and environmental aspects of lichen planus, into the premalignant potential, and into the possible associations with chronic liver, and other, disorders. More clinical studies are required into the possible efficacy of immunomodulatory drugs such as pentoxifylline and thalidomide.

“…W latach 70. ubiegłego wieku opisano przypadki współwystępowania bielactwa i liszaja płaskiego z licznymi innymi schorzeniami, takimi jak wrzo- dziejące zapalenie jelita grubego, miastenia rzekomoporaźna, łysienie plackowate, onychodystrofia oraz twardzina ograniczona [2,3]. W latach 90. opublikowano opisy kilku pacjentów z bielactwem i liszajem płaskim o różnorodnym obrazie klinicznym obu schorzeń [1,4,5].…”

“…8,9 There is one reported case of alopecia areata, lichen planus, and onychodistrophy in a patient with vitiligo and morphea. 10 Among other reported cases are Hashimoto thyroiditis with vitiligo and morphea, 1 as well as alopecia areata and ulcerative colitis with vitiligo and scleroderma. 11 There is no data in the literature to evaluate the coincidental occurrence of these diseases; the associations between vitiligo, morphea, and other autoimmune diseases were revealed by case studies.…”
