Lichen ruber verrucosus/hypertrophicus represents a relatively rare clinical variant, which manifests itself by seeding disseminated multiple hard bumps the size of peas or beans or hyperkeratotic palm-sized foci of purplish gray colour up to a maximum of manifestations on the extensor side of the limbs and interphalangeal joints. The authors describe a case of a patient with histologically confirmed lichen planus verrucosus with a good response to systemic therapy based on retinoids.

Keywords: lichen planus, etiology, therapy, acitretine
