Diagnosis of early genital LS is difficult clinically; hence, histopathology may help to confirm the diagnosis. Aims: The aim of this retrospective study was to elucidate the epidemiology of genital LS and to correlate the clinical and histopathological features of genital LS. Methods: Records of 30 clinically diagnosed patients of genital LS with 27 biopsies included in the study. Clinical data from the records reviewed. Histopathological parameters noted and accordingly cases classified into early, evolved, and mature LS and correlated with clinical features. Results: Genital LS was more common in females with early age of onset. Adult patients had longer duration of disease. Pruritus was the most common symptom and females were more symptomatic. Hypothyroidism was the associated autoimmune disease in two cases. Out of thirty patients, six had genital with perianal involvement and two had genital with the extragenital disease. Phimosis was the most common complication in males, while introital stenosis was the most common in females. Lymphohistiocytic infiltrate was the most common histopathological finding followed by hyperkeratosis, dilated blood vessels and lymphatics, and collagen homogenization. Duration, symptoms, and clinical features were found to be independent of the histopathology findings. Limitations: It is a retrospective study with limited patient information. Association of genital LS with other autoimmune diseases cannot be commented as required investigations were not done. Our data are cross-sectional without follow-up, hence the disease course and treatment outcome could not be commented. Conclusions: Genital LS is prevalent in adult females but childhood occurrence is uncommon. Perianal affection occurs almost exclusively in women with genital LS. Understanding variations in histopathologic features is vital to appropriate clinicopathologic correlation. Long-term follow-up is recommended.","PeriodicalId":423971,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dermatopathology and Diagnostic Dermatology","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134454766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study aimed to compare the accuracy of clinical and dermoscopic findings with histopathology in making a diagnosis of lichenoid dermatoses. Settings and Design: This is a prospective cross-sectional observational study of consecutive, clinically suspected cases of lichenoid skin eruption. Subjects and Methods: Forty patients with various clinical features and dermoscopic features were enrolled. Skin biopsy was taken from all the cases, and the clinical, dermoscopic, and the histopathological correlation was made. Results: Classical lichen planus (CLP) was the most common entity reported (30%), followed by hypertrophic LP (HLP) (15%) and lichen nitidus (15%). Radiating lines were the most common structures seen in as compared with HLP. Comedo-like lesions were significantly seen in HLP than CLP. Compact hyperkeratosis was seen in 66.67% of CLP and in all cases of HLP. There was a significant association in HLP, between blue and black structures on dermoscopy as compared with pigmented melanophages in dermoscopy. Chi-square test was used as a method of comparison, and SPSS Inc. Released 2009. PASW Statistics for Windows, Version 18.0. Chicago: SPSS Inc. was used. Conclusion: Dermoscopic findings give a vital clue about the underlying histopathology which can aid a physician in his/her diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":423971,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Dermatopathology and Diagnostic Dermatology","volume":"116 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134564865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
