  • Title: Incidence of liver disease in chronic lichen planus of the mouth.
    Author: Mobacken H, Nilsson LA, Olsson R, Sloberg K.
    Journal: Acta Derm Venereol; 1984; 64(1):70-3. PubMed ID: 6203287.
    Abstract:
    Fifty-four patients with oral lichen planus were screened for chronic inflammatory liver disease utilizing standard biochemical parameters of liver function, serum levels of immunoglobulins G, A and M and circulating autoantibodies against mitochondriae, smooth muscle and cell nuclei. One patient had primary biliary cirrhosis, and another had cryptogenic cirrhosis. This study did not confirm previous observations of a frequent association of oral lichen planus and primary biliary cirrhosis or chronic active hepatitis.
