Abstract

Plantar ulcerations of lichen planus are unusual manifestations that constrain the patient's quality of life and are often refractory to treatment. We report on a 71-year-old man in whom a prompt and complete healing of plantar ulcerative lichen planus was achieved by treatment with oral cyclosporine.
