The dermatosis described over 40 years ago by Sulzberger and Garbe is still beiig seen and is still withotjt known cause, aetiology or pathogenctic mechanism. Its kaleidoscopic changes in clinical appearance cause it to mimic many other dermatoses. But in typical cases it can be recognized by an assemblage of clinical and histopathological characteristics and distinguished from other known dermatoses. Modern techniques may shed light upon its causal mechanism and either establish it as an entity or place it in nosological perspective.

“…When the generalized eruption undergoes remission, it is not unusual to see one or several lesions remaining. Frequently, a single remaining lesion is localized on the penis; thus representing a persistent penile plaque [1][2][3][4][5][6].…”

“…Around 1927, while studying in Professor Bruno Bloch's Clinic of Dermatology at the University of Zurich, Marion B. Sulzberger observed, for the first time, a dermatosis which neither Bloch nor any of his staff could identify. It was not until 1937, after having gathered several eases together with William Garbe at the Skin and Cancer Unit of the New York University Medical Center, that the characteristic picture and course were published as a "distinctive exudative discoid and lichenoid chronic dermatosis" [2,3]. In the original description it was pointed out that a penile lesion occurs so regularly in this dermatosis, that it may be considered as a characteristic feature of the disease.…”

Objective: Report of two cases of exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzbcrgcr-Garbc) with typical penile lesions. Differential diagnosis of persistent penile plaques. Background: Following remission of the generalized eruption of exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzberger-Garbe), it is not unusual to see a single remaining lesion localized on the penis. Since Sulzberger et al. (Sulzbcrger MB, Witten VH, Hunt JA. Puzzling persistent penile plaques. Arch Dcrmatol 1956;73:101-109) reviewed dermatoses presenting with puzzling persistent penile plaques in 1955, further dermatoses have evolved as important differential diagnoses. Much controversy has arisen as to the justification of exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzberger-Garbe) as a disease entity. Conclusions: Diagnosis of most cases of persistent plaques of dermatitis on the penis is possible with a careful examination of the entire skin, and a thorough history to discover past lesions. The possibility of malignancy makes a biopsy mandatory. Exudative discoid and lichenoid chronic dermatosis {Sulzberger-Garbe) typically responds well to systemic steroids. Intralesional triamcinolone acetonide has been demonstrated to be effective in the treatment of a persistent penile plaque in exudative discoid and lichenoid dermatosis (Sulzberger-Garbe), and may be helpful in discontinuing or reducing systemic therapy to a levei compatible with long-term treatment.SSDI 0926-9959(94)00041-W 412 "F.very practitioner undoubtedly has been consulted on more than one occasion by a patient presenting with a rather persistent plaque of dermatitis on the j^lans penis. To the patient, such a lesion is a source of considerable worr\' and concern. The lay person is inclined to think primarily of two possible causes for his penile lesion -rcnereal disease and cancer. With the physician rests the obligation of establishing the diagnosis, instituting appropriate therapy, and reassuring the patient. " M.B. Sulzberger, V.H. Witlen and J.A. Hunt. 1955 [l]
