Popis: Graham‐Little Piccardi Lassueur Syndrome (GLPLS) is a rare variant of lichen planopilaris (LPP) which characterized by triad of fibrosing alopecia of the scalp, non‐fibrosing alopecia of the axilla and groin, and a follicular spinous papule over the body. LPP is a rare follicular subtype of lichen planus which causes scarring alopecia of scalp, and there are three clinical subtypes of LPP including classic lichen planopilaris, frontal fibrosing alopecia, and GLPLS. Herein, we describe an adult dark‐skinned Saudi male with GLPLS who has numerous body follicular papules, complete loss of axillary hair, and partial loss of groin hair in addition to patchy fibrosing alopecia of the scalp. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of GLPLS in Saudi Arabia.
