Abstract
The lines of Blaschko describe a distribution pattern which may represent embryological development pathways. The distribution may occasionally be followed by some skin disorders. We report a patient who had multiple lesions of linear lichen planus which followed Blaschko's lines. There were multiple streaks affecting several different areas of the body.
