Abstract EN

Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of an unknown aetiology most commonly affecting the anogenital area.

However, extragenital involvement also occurs uncommonly.

A case of extra-genital LS involving the areolae of both breasts, in a 15-year-old boy, is reported for its rarity.
