A case of lichen planus of the penis mimicking leukoplakia lesions: a review of differential diagnosis.

We describe a case of a 50-year-old man with lesions localized in the region of urethral meatus and on the epithelium of the foreskin. The lesions were observed as the white spots with flat or somewhat depressed surface, locally similar to leukoplakia, lichen sclerosus atrophicus or cicatrix, without any subjective symptoms. Cystoscopy, micturition urography and biopsy were performed by urologist. The diagnosis of lichen planus Wilsoni was made based on the biopsy examination. We obtained great improvement of lesions through the applied local therapy
