Lichen sclerosus hos menn: Årsak

Innhold i artikkelen

Årsaken er ukjent. Det kan hos ca. 10 prosent forekomme flere tilfeller i samme familie av begge kjønn. Det finnes ingen klare teorier om årsak, men autoimmun sykdom kan mistenkes hos noen. Skader på penis eller huden kan være en utløsende årsak.
