They demand interdisciplinary involvement of health professionals. They are most common among middle-aged women. We report the case of a 42-year-old man with a diagnosis of an ulcerated lesion on the upper and lower lips, secondary to obsessive-compulsive behavior. Histopathological findings were non-specific and the results of laboratory tests performed showed no alterations. Joint evaluation by Psychiatry and Dermatology was initiated, with follow-up sessions of psychotherapy. Patient chose to abandon treatment. The importance of recognizing psychodermatoses for the dermatologist is emphasized, aiming at the early diagnosis and therapeutics, which will allow the prevention of destructive and mutilating lesions.</p&gt;}, number={1}, journal={Journal of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereology}, author={Logullo, Letícia and Rocha Neto, Helio G. and Prigenzi, Karla Calaca Kabbach and Mattos e Dinato, Sandra Lopes}, year={2019}, month={Mar.}, pages={77-80} }
