Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a rare disease with malignant potential and has been identified by the European Society of Urology Guidelines as a risk factor for penile squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cancer. LS combined with urethral squamous cell carcinoma (USCC) is extremely rare. There has been only one case report of this combination in China over the last decade. The prevalence of this combination in East Asian population is unclear. In this report, a 49-year-old patient with the presence of LS, perineal masses, and abscesses was hospitalized. He underwent anti-infectious therapy, meatotomy, perineal abscess incision, and drainage and debridement of the perineal wound. USCC was diagnosed following a series of biopsies and treated with radiation therapy. The patient remains well and alive with no recurrence of USCC 13 months after radiation treatment.

Genital lichen planus (LP) forms a small but significant proportion of non-venereal genital dermatoses. Lesions of vulvovaginal LP are often asymptomatic and may be overlooked on self-examination. Clinical features are very similar to lichen sclerosus which is frequently seen in children whereas mucosal vulval LP commonly affects adult females. Histopathological examination of the lesion is an important diagnostic tool for its early diagnosis as progressive disease poses a risk of scarring. We report a case of vulvovaginal LP in a 56-year-old postmenopausal female presenting with hypopigmented patches on vulva for 10 years.

Topical corticosteroids are currently recommended only for short-term management of flares of lichen sclerosus, with efficacy in halting disease progression. Given the chronic nature of this condition, there is a lack of literature surrounding the chronic effects of topical corticosteroids on the male genitalia with many dermatologists avoiding prescribing long term. This case report aims to provide anecdotal observation for the long-term use of topical corticosteroids and details the long-term follow-up of an individual who used potent and superpotent topical corticosteroids for over 25 years without significant demonstrable side effects. A short review on relevant literature is provided.
