Vulvo-vagino-gingival syndrome was described as a distinctive pattern of erosive plurimucosal lichen planus (LP), and it is a clinical triad of vulval, vaginal, and gingival LP. It can lead to sequelae such as vaginal and urethral stenosis which can have severe implications on the quality of life. We report a case of a 40-year-old female who developed urethral, vaginal, as well as anal stenosis as a result of long-term exclusive mucosal LP involving vulvo-vaginal and anal mucosa along with oral LP without any other cutaneous involvement. This case is being reported because of the rare association of anal LP with vulvo-vagino-gingival syndrome and its gross similarity to lichen sclerosus.
外阴-阴道-牙龈综合征被描述为糜烂性多黏膜扁平苔藓(LP)的一种独特模式,它是外阴、阴道和牙龈LP的临床三联征。它可导致诸如阴道和尿道狭窄等后遗症,这可能对生活质量产生严重影响。我们报告一例40岁女性病例,该患者因长期单纯性黏膜LP累及外阴-阴道和肛门黏膜以及口腔LP,且无任何其他皮肤受累,从而出现尿道、阴道以及肛门狭窄。报告该病例是因为肛门LP与外阴-阴道-牙龈综合征的罕见关联以及它与硬化性苔藓的高度相似性。
