title: [Lichen aureus and vascular fragility].
abstract: Our observation concerns a patient aged 29 who has presented for the last two years a smooth lesion, non-infiltrated, golden yellow, and situated on the interior surface of the left knee. This lesion recalls the lichen aureus confirmed by standard histology nad Perls' coloration. There is capillary fragility without plaque anomaly. There is, however, no sign of subjacent venous incompetence.
