Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome is a rare variant of lichen planus pillar of unknown etiology. It is characterized by progressive scarring alopecia of the scalp, non-scarring alopecia of the axilla and pubis, and follicular lichenoid eruption. We report a classic case of a 74-year-old female patient with hair thinning in the right frontotemporal region, axillary and genital hypotrichosis and keratosis pilaris in the lumbar region and flanks.
