Article Abstract
A 34-year-old female patient presented with recurrent bilateral hypopigmented macules on the labia majora. The lesions were treated with topical steroids, which led to mild improvement, but erosive plaques developed after discontinuing the treatment. Histopathological findings were compatible with extramammary Paget disease (EMPD), which was treated with radical vulvectomy with no recurrence in the next months of follow-up.

Background: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in domestic cattle is an economically significant malignant neoplasm and has been documented primarily in ocular and periocular tissues, vulva, and perineum. SCCs are often slow-growing and locally invasive, but metastasis is uncommon. Increased risk of developing SCC has been predominantly associated with high levels of sunlight exposure and hypopigmentation (skin and conjunctiva).

Article Synopsis
- Lichen planus (LP) and lichen sclerosus (LS) are common skin conditions affecting the vulva, but they can be challenging to diagnose due to different appearances and biopsy sizes.
- This study reviewed cases from 2012 to 2022, analyzing clinical details like age, symptoms, and biopsy results to differentiate between LP and LS.
- The findings revealed distinct clinical features and histopathological characteristics for each condition, highlighting that while classic LS is easier to identify, some atypical cases can resemble LP, emphasizing the importance of careful examination for accurate diagnosis.
