Abstract
A 42-year-old woman developed a papular eruption mainly localized on t he light side of the body and with a zosteriform pattern within the ne rve segments TH6-TH12, L(1)-L(4) as well as S-1 and S-2. The skin lesi ons were characteristic of lichen ruber planus. The zosteriform arrang e ment of lichenoid papules is rare and is interpreted as a cutaneous reaction possibly triggered by some neural factor.
