dc.description.abstractSkin biopsy has wide importance in daily dermatology practice. Psoriasis vulgaris and lichen planus are the basic lesions of the skin that are characterized by non-infectious erythematous, papulosquamous lesions that pathologists differentiate in routine laboratory examinations. Our aim is to analyse these lesions by pathologic and clinical findings in our institute with evaluating clinicopathologic correlation. Material and Methods: In our study 420 cases defined as erythematous, papulosquamous lesions and prediagnosed as psoriasis vulgaris and lichen planus by dermatologists and evaluated in pathology laboratory between 2004-2010 have been reviewed. Cases have been grouped according to the distribution of age, gender, localization of lesions, clinic prediagnose and pathologic diagnose. Results: The lesions comprised 14.3% of the total load of surgical pathology and 9.1% of total number of skin biopsies. The highest percentage was in the 41-50 year age group (18.8%) with a female predominance of 51.2%. The limbs were most frequently involved (36.9%). Psoriatic lesions were the commonest (49.8%), classic generalized plaque variant psoriasis (89%) being the most frequent followed by lichenoid lesions (19.3%), lichen planus (96%) being the commonest. Correlation with the histopathologic diagnosis was positive in 71.4 % cases and negative in 28.6% cases. The histopathologic examination revealed the same microscobic features in almost all cases similar with the literature. Conclusion: The contribution of histopathology to the final diagnosis was significant. Skin biopsy is very valuable in daily dermatology practice and appropiate clinicopathologic correlation is very important for the effective diagnosis and treatment of patients. © 2013 by Türkiye Klinikleri.en_US
