Abstract
Objective: Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that may affect the skin, scalp, nails, and mucosa. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk of genital premalignant and malignant conditions in patients with anogenital LP (agLP).
Methods: We identified 60 male and 56 female patients with agLP by searching the biobank archives for a genital or perianal skin biopsy showing LP between 2004 and 2020. We also included 10 randomly selected age- and sex-matched controls for each patient. The risks of genital cancers and their precursors were evaluated.
Results: The incidence of agLP was 1.54 per 100,000 men and 1.36 per 100,000 women. There was no statistical difference between male and female incidence (p = .5721). The odds ratio (OR) for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) of the vulva was 31.2 (95% CI = 2.46-1645.00; p = .01). The OR for penile neoplasias could not be calculated because control patients had no neoplasias, but the difference was suggestive of statistical significance (95% CI = 1.90-infinite; p = .008). The mean age at the time of diagnosis of agLP was 59.9 years (median 62 years) in female patients and 40.8 years (median 33 years) in male patients. The difference in the mean ages of female and male patients was statistically significant (95% CI = 11.92-26.13; p < .001).
Conclusions: Patients with agLP may have an increased risk for vulvar HSIL and penile neoplasia.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease is the source for the latest science about benign and malignant conditions of the cervix, vagina, vulva, and anus.
The Journal publishes peer-reviewed original research original research that addresses prevalence, causes, mechanisms, diagnosis, course, treatment, and prevention of lower genital tract disease. We publish clinical guidelines, position papers, cost-effectiveness analyses, narrative reviews, and systematic reviews, including meta-analyses. We also publish papers about research and reporting methods, opinions about controversial medical issues. Of particular note, we encourage material in any of the above mentioned categories that is related to improving patient care, avoiding medical errors, and comparative effectiveness research. We encourage publication of evidence-based guidelines, diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms, and decision aids. Original research and reviews may be sub-classified according to topic: cervix and HPV, vulva and vagina, perianal and anal, basic science, and education and learning.
The scope and readership of the journal extend to several disciplines: gynecology, internal medicine, family practice, dermatology, physical therapy, pathology, sociology, psychology, anthropology, sex therapy, and pharmacology. The Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease highlights needs for future research, and enhances health care.
The Journal of Lower Genital Tract Disease is the official journal of the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology, the International Society for the Study of Vulvovaginal Disease, and the International Federation of Cervical Pathology and Colposcopy, and sponsored by the Australian Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology and the Society of Canadian Colposcopists.
