Q

Lichen sclerosus(TOPNOTCH) Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 713

A

Lesion of the female vulva characterized by thinning of the epidermis and disappearance of rete pegs, hydropic degeneration of basal cells, superficial hyperkeratosis, dermal fibrosis with scant perivascular, mononuclear inflammatory cell infiltrate. Occurs most commonly in postmenopausal women. SEE SLIDE 19.1
