Solitary verrucous plaque on a leg

We present the case of a female in her 70s who presented with a solitary verrucous plaque on her left leg accompanied by painful oral erosions. Various differential diagnoses were considered, like lichen simplex chronicus, hypertrophic lichen planus, and chromoblastomycosis. We diagnosed pemphigus vegetans (PVeg) on a nonintertriginous site through comprehensive clinical examination and histopathological and immunopathological evaluations. This case highlights the importance of considering PVeg in the differential diagnosis of solitary verrucous plaques, even in atypical extra-flexural anatomical locations.
