Histomorphological study of lichenoid dermatitides – A retrospective study

Background: Lichenoid dermatitis is a very common dermatological condition and defined by features of basal cell damage dense band-like infiltration at the dermo-epidermal junction. There wide range lesions included under this prototype lesion Lichen Planus. Aims Objectives: The aims study were to histopathological spectrum conditions with lichenoid tissue reaction find clinicopathological concordance lesions. Materials Methods: A retrospective was conducted in tertiary care center, where all skin biopsy cases diagnosed clinically and/or histologically as for 2 years (2018–2019) study. Demographic details, clinical diagnosis, histological different collected from respective case sheets reports entered an excel worksheet. Frequency percentages used represent data. Results: total 47 dermatitis, which 38 showed between diagnosis. Nine discordance diagnosis categorized without features. Seven only on absence such differential clinically. Out 45 27 lichen planus, five planus pigmentosus, four hypertrophic three two each planopilaris, keratosis, sclerosis. seen commonly among 41–50 age group. Females more affected than males. Conclusion: dermatitides. Definitive specific entity important decision-making regarding treatment modality prognosis patient depends it. Histopathological examination vital definitive along correlation concludes that key.
