DIRECT IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE PROFILE OF LICHEN PLANUS - A FRESH LOOK ON OLD DISEASE. A STUDY OF 15 CASES
Journal Title: GJRA-Global Journal For Research Analysis - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 8
Abstract
Introduction: Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inammatory mucocutaneous diasease that is often diagnosed on the basis of clinical &/or histopathologic ndings. However, it has some characteristic direct immunouorescence (DIF) ndings that can help in diagnosing confusing cases. Aim: We analyzed DIF ndings in skin biopsy in LP compared to histopathology. Materials & methods: A skin biopsy of lesion was taken from 15 cases of LP (13 classic LP & 2 LP pigmentosus) & subjected to histopathology & DIF examination. Results: The sensitivity of histopathology and DIF was found to be 100% & 93.3% respectively for the diagnosis of LP & LPP.
