ABSTRACT

Verrucous lichen sclerosus is a rare chronic inflammatory disease that sometimes evolves into malignancy. Its association with human papillomavirus remains controversial. We present a case of hypertrophic lichen sclerosus refractory to treatment. The presence of HPV type 6 is demonstrated. The role that this HPV plays in the pathogenesis of the disease and in the clinical form is discussed.
