Scientific Abstract
Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic, inflammatory, scarring disease of the skin, manifesting mostly in the genital region, that can occur at any age and in both sexes. The etiology and pathophysiology of LS remain unknown. The aim of our study is to investigate the expression of miRNAs in the tissue of patients with histologically confirmed LS in all ages and in both sexes. Histological samples from patients without evidence of LS will serve as a control group.
