چکیده

Introduction: Dermatoses localized to the anogenital area (AGA) are an urgent problem of modern medicine. The similar clinical pictures of most skin diseases in this area pose a challenge to clinicians as the effectiveness of treatment depends on the accuracy of the diagnosis. The article presents modern data on various forms of lichen planus in the AGA. We discuss the relationship of the disease with pathological conditions, such as dyslipidemia, hypothyroidism, and diabetes mellitus. Special attention is paid to the hypertrophic variant of lichen planus in the AGA, which has the most complex clinical picture for diagnosis and is least described in the scientific literature. Case Presentation: The authors present a complex interdisciplinary clinical case of lichen planus in the anogenital region. Conclusion: The joint work of a dermatovenerologist, proctologist, obstetrician-gynecologist, urologist, oncologist, pathologist, and surgeon provides a faster and more accurate diagnosis of diseases, facilitating timely and adequate treatment tactics. The presented clinical case will help practitioners better navigate the issues of diagnosing skin diseases in the anogenital area.
