Childhood vulvar lichen sclerosus: An increasingly common problem
Abstract
Background Lichen sclerosus (LS) of the vulva in children is presenting more commonly, but its origin is unknown.Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of childhood vulvar LS, to examine factors that may play a role in its cause, and to attempt to define the current optimal treatment.Methods We surveyed 70 cases of LS currently being treated in the pediatric vulvar clinic to collect information on presentation, family history, associated disease, and typical course of the disorder. We looked retrospectively and prospectively at treatments for LS.Results We found a prevalence of premenarchal LS of 1 in 900 and confirmed an increasing incidence. In a high proportion of cases (77%), the question of sexual abuse had been raised. A family history of LS was found in a minimum of 17% of cases. Associated autoimmune disease occurred in 14%, but 64% told of a family history, and atopy occurred in 59%. Potent topical steroid ointments appear to alleviate symptoms most effectively, with minimal side effects.Conclusion Although the cause of LS remains uncertain, it is not a rare disease in prepubertal girls. Current optimal management includes prompt diagnosis and institution of treatment with a potent topical steroid.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
