Аннотация
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Dysphagia is one of the most common reasons for patients' visits to a gastroenterologist. Esophageal lichen planus (ELP) has historically been felt to be a rare disease, when in fact it is often misdiagnosed and unrecognized. Often first diagnosed as an unusual esophagitis, all gastroenterologists will see ELP in their practice, and need to be able to recognize this condition.
RECENT FINDINGS: Although there is still a relative paucity of data on this condition, this article will update the typical presenting symptoms, endoscopic findings, and ways to differentiate ELP from other inflammatory mucosal diseases. There is still no standardized treatment algorithm, but we will also present the most recent treatment approaches.
SUMMARY: It is critical that physicians maintain an increased awareness of ELP and have a high clinical suspicion in the appropriate patients. While management remains challenging, it is important to treat both the inflammatory and stricturing components of the disease. A multidisciplinary approach is also often required, utilizing dermatologists, gynecologists, and dentists who are familiar with managing patients with LP.
