This study found that videodermoscopy reveals distinct dermoscopic features in patients with alopecia areata incognita, aiding in biopsy decisions by identifying the appropriate sampling area and potentially avoiding unnecessary procedures.

The authors concluded that some patients clinically diagnosed with telogen effluvium may actually have alopecia areata incognita, suggested by the presence of dystrophic hairs and development of alopecia patches.

This study suggests a new subtype of alopecia, termed 'acute diffuse and total alopecia of the female scalp' (ADTAFS), characterized by acute and total hair loss in women with a favorable recovery profile.

This study analyzed the features of alopecia areata incognita and diffuse alopecia areata, finding distinct patterns in hair loss regions and trichoscopic signs, and noted a benign course responsive to topical steroid therapy.

This article reviews alopecia areata incognita, a rare condition mostly seen in young women, and discusses its similarities and differences with telogen effluvium; however, it reports no new clinical findings.
