Living with vulval lichen sclerosus: a systematic review

Rees, S.; Kirby, L.; Simpson, R.C.

Abstract

Lichen sclerosus (LS) is an under‐researched disorder, particularly from the perspective of individuals who have the condition. A recent James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership identified uncertainties in many aspects of the condition, including its impact on quality of life which was ranked within the ‘Top 10’ future research priorities.1,2 We set out to systematically review the qualitative literature exploring the lived experience of vulval LS (for the full protocol see PROSPERO ID:CRD42018106947).
