Two patients with clinical and laboratory evidence of co‐existing lichen sclerosus and eicatricial pemphigoid are reported. Autoimmune bullous diseases affecting the vulva may mimic lichen sclerosus but in these two patients both diseases were present. These two diseases have not previously been reported simultaneously to date.
