We report on a rare type of leucoplakia of the lip and the prepuce showing the morphological features of epidermolytic hyperkeratosis. The development of squamous cell carcinoma in one of the patients strongly suggests that epidermolytic leucoplakia may represent a precancerous disorder of the transitional epidermis.
