Dr. Sowmya Naga Dogiparthi, Vijayakumar S, Jeyakumari Jeevan

Abstract :

A rare variant of lichen planopilaris; Graham Little Picardi Lassueur Syndrome (GLS) is characterized by the triad of patchy cicatricial alopecia of the scalp, noncicatricial alopecia of the axilla and groin, and keratotic follicular papules of the body. The exact pathogenesis is not known;but primarily involves an immune mediated inflammatory reaction against the bulge region of hair follicles resulting in cicatricial alopecia. The disease is most commonly seen in women 30 to 70 years of age. Hence we present a case of this rare syndrome in a 32 year–old male and provide a discussion about the disease and treatment options
