Zusammenfassung

Der Lichen sclerosus ist eine chronische, entzündliche Hauterkrankung, die meist den Genitalbereich betrifft. Die frühe Diagnose und anschließende, dauerhafte antientzündliche Behandlung können die Krankheit so beeinflussen, dass Patienten weitgehend symptomfrei sind und das Risiko von mutierenden Krankheitsverläufen und der Karzinomentwicklung reduziert ist.
