The lichenoid tissue reaction (LTR) is characterised by epidermal basal cell damage and a variable subepithelial inflammatory infiltrate. There is a range of mucosal lesions exhibiting the LTR, chief of which is Oral Lichen Planus (OLP). The other oral lichenoid lesions resemble OLP clinically and histologically and at times it can be difficult to differentiate between the lesions. The important oral lichenoid lesions are reviewed in this paper.
苔藓样组织反应（LTR）的特征是表皮基底细胞损伤和不同程度的上皮下炎症浸润。有一系列表现为LTR的黏膜病变，其中主要的是口腔扁平苔藓（OLP）。其他口腔苔藓样病变在临床和组织学上与OLP相似，有时很难区分这些病变。本文对重要的口腔苔藓样病变进行了综述。
