Abstract:
A patient with an acquired pigmentation related to lichen planus pigmentosus is described. Features of acrokeratosis of Bazex were associated, related to a head and neck carcinoma. Both cutaneous conditions disappeared after treatment of the neoplasia. Diagnostic criteria of lichen planus pigmentosus are reviewed. The paraneoplastic nature of this original observation of lichen planus pigmentosus is discussed.
