This study identified a new variety of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia that includes patchy hair loss on the lateral and posterior scalp in African-American women, which could be misdiagnosed as traction alopecia without dermatoscopy and pathology.

This study found that RCM combined with dermoscopy can differentiate disease states between alopecia areata, tinea capitis, nevus sebaceous, and linear scleroderma of the scalp by identifying distinct dermal and follicular patterns.

This case report details a 17-year-old female with anorexia nervosa who presented with a large, irregular area of pubic hair loss exhibiting various hair and skin abnormalities.

This case report describes two patients who experienced loose anagen hairs and pili torti, resulting in nonscarring alopecia, potentially linked to erlotinib treatment for solid tumors.

This study suggests that corkscrew hairs in tinea capitis result from internal hair damage by Trichophyton violaceum and external resistance from scalp scales.
