Oral Lichen planus (OLP) is a common mucocutaneous disorder with a multifactorial aetiology, affecting the women more commonly than men. Most OLP are asymptomatic, except the atrophic and erosive forms.Till date many treatment modalities are implicated to treat this disorder, but no therapy is considered as the single most effective, without side-effects and remission of the lesion. As the treatment of OLP is challenging to the oral practitioners, here we report a case of successful management of extensive, symptomatic bullous and erosive oral lichen planus with a novel treatment protocol- oral minipulse therapy with betamethasone.
口腔扁平苔藓(OLP)是一种病因多因素的常见黏膜皮肤疾病,女性比男性更易患病。除萎缩型和糜烂型外,大多数OLP无症状。迄今为止,有多种治疗方式用于治疗该疾病,但尚无一种疗法被认为是最有效的、无副作用且能使病损缓解的单一疗法。由于OLP的治疗对口腔医生而言具有挑战性,在此我们报告一例采用新型治疗方案——倍他米松口服微脉冲疗法成功治疗广泛、有症状的大疱性和糜烂性口腔扁平苔藓的病例。
