Abstract
We describe a 21-year-old male patient with linear extragenital lichen sclerosus. The lesions are confined to the left side of his body and consist of 3 long bands running along the left leg and several patchy and linear lesions on the left side of his trunk. An associated finding is a smaller diameter of the distal part of his left lower leg caused by bony atrophy of the underlying portion the tibia. This is the fifth reported case of linear lichen sclerosus.
