Abstract

A 70-year-old man presented with a 6-month history of extensive, progressive perianal erosions. In addition, he had white reticulate striae and small erosions on the penis. The clinical diagnosis of erosive lichen planus was confirmed histologically. After several topical approaches failed and his ss-blocker was stooped, 3 pulses of dexamethasone (100 mg dexamethasone i.v. on 3 consecutive days every 4 weeks) led to complete and long-lasting remission.
