Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by white porcelain-like sclerotic skin lesions. It is most commonly seen in adult females and usually affects the genitoanal area. Extragenital LSA appears in 15-20% of cases. We report a 9-year-old Caucasian girl suffering from extragenital LSA that was resistant to conventional treatment. After 40 treatment sessions with low-dose UVA1 phototherapy, all skin lesions were resolved completely. Moreover, the improvement of skin status has been sustained during 6-months of follow-up. Long-wave UVA irradiation has been shown to induce intensively collagenase activity in human dermal fibroblasts. We suggest that UVA1 irradiation could be an effective treatment in patients suffering from extragenital LSA.
