Early-Onset Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lasseur Syndrome with Cutaneous Lichen Planus – A Rare Case Report and Review of Literature

Abstract

Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lasseur syndrome (GLPLS) is a rare condition characterized by lichen planopilaris with scarring alopecia of the scalp and nonscarring alopecia of the axilla, groin, and pubis with keratosis pilaris. It usually affects middle-aged women more than men. The onset of scarring alopecia is usually reported in middle age. We report a case of GLPLS from South India, having early onset of alopecia in childhood, associated with cutaneous lichen planus.
