Abstract :
Introduction: Lichen Planus (LP) is an inflammatory disease with different clinical manifestations. Case Presentation: This study presents a fairly uncommon form of lichen planus following the lines of Blaschko. The lesions were in a whorled pattern on the right side of the trunk with extension to infra-mammary fold and discrete red-to-violaceous lichenoid papules without linear distribution on the left side of the trunk. Conclusions: An uncommon form of lichen planus is presented that every dermatologist should keep in mind on observing a dermatosis with a Blaschko linear pattern of distribution.
