Lichen sclerosus affecting the male genitalia is a poorly understood but potentially devastating condition. The natural history of the condition is beginning to be understood better with longer follow-up of patients. Recent long-term data suggest that circumcision for lichen sclerosus limited to the prepuce may not be curative as was once thought. In addition, surgical treatments should be followed up for longer periods as recurrences may occur after urethroplasty and perineal urethrostomy.

Because of heightened awareness about sexual abuse, it is important for physicians to differentiate between genital lesions associated with abuse and those associated with "natural" disease processes. Lichen sclerosus is a disease of the skin most often found in the vulvar and perianal areas of postmenopausal women. It is less commonly seen in prepubertal female children and premenopausal adult women. Cases of lichen sclerosus have also been reported on the male genitalia, and it is an uncommon cause of phimosis in boys. One of the clinical manifestations of lichen sclerosus is cutaneous bleeding causing lesions resembling "blood blisters" or bruises.
