Lichen planus (LP) is a common dermatological disease that classically presents with purple, polygonal, pruritic, flat topped papules on the skin, but can also involve mucosae and nails [ 1 ]. Many morphological variants of LP have been described. The linear variant following the lines of Blaschko is an extremely rare entity and must be differentiated from the commoner linear LP as a result of koebnerization due to trauma and zosteriform LP [ 2 ]. The rarity of this pattern of the LP inspired us to present this case.
