Abstract
- Lichen nitidus is an uncommon chronic inflammatory disease characterized by multiple minute discrete flesh-colored dome shaped papules. Its distribution is frequently localized on trunk, arm or penis. There are a few cases reported to occur on palm and sole. We report a case of lichen nitidus which presents erythematous or brownish colored hyperkeratotic plaques, composed of 1-2 mm sized small papules on the right palm. Its hitopathologic findings were consistent with a diagnosis of lichen nitidus.
