Abstract

Lichen planus is an idiopathic and inflammatory dermatosis affecting skin, mucosa, and nails. The exact etiopathogenesis is unknown, but autoimmunity, viruses, vaccinations, contact allergens, drugs, stress and genetic predisposition may have roles. Familial lichen planus has been rarely reported. However, the increase in familial cases day by day, strengthens the place of genetic predisposition in pathogenesis. Herein, we report a familial case of lichen planus in a mother and daughter.
