To the best of our knowledge, there are few reports on cases of SJS with concomitant lichen sclerosus (LS). Herein, we report the case of a 69-year-old woman with these two diseases. The patient’s skin showed atrophic leukoplakia and AE. Based on the comprehensive evaluation of general condition, the patient was diagnosed and actively received treatment. After systematic treatment, her symptoms were controlled. However, the patient’s condition requires long-term management.Keywords: annular erythema, skin atrophy, depigmentation, skin lesions
