ABSTRACT
Lichen planus is a chronic auto-inflammatory disease that primarily affects mucocutaneous regions. There are many variants of lichen planus including cutaneous, oral, nail, follicular, and erosive forms. Without any disease-specific treatment options, multi-variant lichen planus can be a challenging disease to manage. We present a 61-year-old woman with multivariant lichen planus that was refractory to numerous systemic and topical therapies. Subsequently, her cutaneous and vulvovaginal lesions improved with the use of oral baricitinib and the erosive oral lesions improved with topical ruxolitinib.
