Squamous cell carcinoma arising from chronic hypertrophic Lichen Planus: A case report
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Association of lichen planus and cutaneous malignancies is rare. Reports of neoplastic changes are mostly related to buccal chronic erosive lichen planus. We report herein a 29-year-old man who developed squamous cell carcinoma on previous lesions of chronic hypertrophic lichen planus of lower legs. Careful follow up of patients with chronic lichen planus and biopsy sampling of uncommon lesions is required to rule out malignant transformation.

Squamous Cell Carcinoma Arising from Hypertrophic Lichen Planus
Lichen planus is not a common premalignant condition; a study showed only 8 SCC developing in 2071 patients of lichen planus followed up for over 9.9 years.[1] LPH and oral lichen planus are two variants which have a higher risk of malignant transformation. Till December 2015, 38 cases of SCC developing in LPH have been reported.[2] SCC arising from LPH is most commonly seen on the lower limbs,...

متن کاملSquamous Cell Carcinoma Arising Within Gingival Lichen Planus
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a malignant tumour of the epithelial cells of the oral mucosa and accounts for more than 90% of all head and neck cancers (Silverman, 2001). SCC’s may arise in different areas of the oral cavity, the most common sites being the posterior ventero-lateral border of the tongue and floor of mouth (McGaw and Pan, 1996).
