Description | Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus, balanitis xerotica obliterans in boys, is a chronic skin disease with genital predilection. The clinical symptoms are not specific and making correct diagnosis usually takes several months. Invasive examinations without exact diagnose are common. The correct diagnostic and treatment prevent permanent genital atrophy. The recurrences are frequent and long term follow up is necessary. |
