First Report of Successful Treatment of Erosive Vulvovaginal Lichen Planus with Platelet-Rich Fibrin: A Case Report and Comprehensive Literature Review
While the efficacy of PRF has been previously reported in oral erosive lichen planus, this case is the first to document successful treatment of erosive vulvovaginal lichen planus using PRF. These findings highlight the potential of PRF as an effective, minimally invasive option for managing treatment-resistant mucosal lesions.
