GLPLS is considered to be a variant of lichen planopilaris. We report two cases that have fulfilled all of the criteria for GLPLS. The first case was a 71-year-old woman, admitted to the Department of Dermatology for pruritic perifollicullar erythema and scaling of the scalp, cicatricial scalp alopecia and hair loss of the axilla and pubic region for five months. Subsequently, follicular hyperkeratotic eruptions and hyperpigmented macules on the skin of the chest and abdomen appeared. The second case was a 48-year-old man with pruritic follicular papules on the face, trunk and extremities for four months. All of the laboratory examinations in both patients were within normal limits. No alternation in the general condition of the patients was observed. Histological examinations in both patients confirmed the diagnosis GLPLS. The patients were treated with systemic and local corticosteroid resulting in marked improvement of the skin lesions; however, cicatricial scalp alopecia showed no response to the treatment.Dourmishev L.Mironova N.Popov I.Rusinova D.Balabanova M.Miteva L.Sciendoarticlelichen planopilariscicatricial alopeciagraham-little-piccardi-lassueur syndromeMedicineRENActa Medica Bulgarica, Vol 47, Iss 4, Pp 58-62 (2020)
