This case study reports that selenium shampoo, bacterial infection with trichomycosis axillaris, and possibly strongyloides larvae may have contributed to acquired hair shaft abnormalities resembling trichorrhexis nodosa in two patients.

This case report details a Taiwanese woman with scleredema adultorum and diabetes mellitus experiencing loss of eccrine glands, which led to frequent heat strokes and anhidrosis despite treatment.

This article discusses two cases of follicular dyskeratosis (Darier-White disease), highlighting its rare occurrence, genetic basis, and the challenges in diagnosis and treatment; it presents no new experimental results.

This case report presents a patient with woolly hair and associated symptoms, including keratosis pilaris, nail dystrophy, increased interdental spaces, and recurrent bullous impetigo, observing a combination not previously reported.

This case report identified lash ptosis as a potential complication of latanoprost therapy in a 61-year-old man with ocular hypertension.

This report describes a rare case of acquired eyelash trichomegaly in a 16-year-old female with systemic lupus erythematosus, accompanied by diffuse hair loss and "lupus hairs" on the scalp.

This case study suggests that early or significant alopecia in young adults may warrant investigation for underlying congenital conditions like trichorhinophalangeal syndrome.

This report describes a case of isolated congenital atrichia combined with nevus flammeus.

This case report describes a 44-year-old patient with late-onset partial lipodystrophy, mental retardation, epilepsy, ichthyosis, and glomerulonephritis, linked to a 10 Mb duplication of chromosome region 5q31.3-5q32.1.

This case report highlights the association of three CX26 gene mutations, particularly the D50N mutation, with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome and its potential role in scalp squamous cell carcinoma and breast cancer development in a patient.

This case report describes a 27-year-old male with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1, characterized by symptoms including fever, dysarthria, dysphagia, oral candidiasis, nail dystrophy, alopecia, hypoparathyroidism, and dilated cardiomyopathy.
