Lichen sclerosus premenarche: autoimmunity and immunogenetics.

Lichen sclerosus premenarche: autoimmunity and immunogenetics.

Lichen sclerosus is among the most frequently seen paediatric vulval disorders. In adults a strong association between lichen sclerosus and autoimmune diseases, and also with HLA class II locus DQ7, has been well demonstrated in women and a weaker association in men. These associations have not prev...
