Int J Trichology. 2011 Jan;3(1):28-30. doi: 10.4103/0974-7753.82129.

Abstract

Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome is a type of lichen planopilaris (follicular lichen planus) characterized by the triad of patchy cicatricial alopecia of the scalp, noncicatricial alopecia of the axilla and groin, and a follicular spinous papule on the body, scalp, or both. It is four times more common in females in the age group of 30-70 years. Only a few cases have been reported in literature wherein the disease has affected males. Herein we report a young male who presented with features of Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome.

Keywords: Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome; follicular lichen planus; male.
