title: [Follicular tumidus retro-auricular lichen planus (author's transl)].
abstract: Referring to three comparable cases, a new form of lichen planus is described. This form is characterized by a prominent lesion, violaceus in color or pigmented, with white yellowish specks mimicking milia. The histologic picture of lichen follicularis, the presence of typical papules of lichen distant from the retro-auricular lesion make it possible to consider this clinical aspect as a variety of lichen planus.
