  • Title: Oral lichen planus and chronic active hepatitis B: a salutary tale.
    Author: Jorge J, Lopes MA, de Almeida OP, Scully C.
    Journal: Dent Update; 1994 Oct; 21(8):335-7. PubMed ID: 7641956.
    Abstract:
    Oral lichen planus is occasionally associated with chronic active hepatitis or primary biliary cirrhosis. This paper describes a patient who presented with oral lichen planus and proved to have chronic active hepatitis, evidently related to hepatitis B virus infection. Oral lichen planus appears occasionally to be associated with systemic infection with hepatitis B or hepatitis C viruses, particularly in patients from southern Europe.
