PURPOSE: To report a case of severe cicatricial conjunctivitis in a patient with lichen planus, which is known to affect the skin and mucous membranes. The conjunctival immunopathologic features were consistent with lupus erythematosus rather than with lichen planus.
METHOD: Oral mucosal and skin biopsies were performed with histopathologic and immunofluorescent studies consistent with lichen planus. The patient later had a biopsy of cicatrized conjunctiva with histopathologic and immunofluorescent findings consistent with lupus erythematosus. Evaluation by rheumatology and dermatology consultants demonstrated no evidence of active systemic lupus erythematosus or discoid lupus erythematosus.
RESULTS: The patient was treated with topical and systemic immunosuppressives and her disease eventually stabilized.
CONCLUSION: The case demonstrates two coexisting autoimmune disease entities: lichen planus of the skin and oral mucosa and a cicatricial conjunctivitis consistent with lupus erythematosus.
