This case report details a rare instance of malignant proliferating trichilemmal tumour in a 60-year-old male, emphasizing the significance of histochemical and immunohistochemical markers for accurate diagnosis and differentiation from squamous cell carcinoma.

This case report highlights that tumid lupus erythematosus should be considered in the differential diagnosis of annular scalp lesions with non-scarring alopecia, emphasizing histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.

This study found that DC-HIL+ myeloid derived suppressor cells are increased in the blood and skin of patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus and show immunosuppressive properties.

This report describes the clinical and histopathological features of lipoid proteinosis in a brother and sister with lid lesions, highlighting the importance of recognizing such lesions for diagnosis.

This study suggests that rather than inhibiting IL-15, selectively stimulating IL-15Ra-mediated signaling could be beneficial for managing alopecia areata and possibly other inflammatory hair loss conditions, as IL-15 promoted hair growth and maintained immune privilege in human hair follicles.

This case report describes a patient who developed dissecting cellulitis of the scalp after follicular unit extraction, showing significant improvement with isotretinoin, dutasteride, and steroids.

This study found sebaceous gland atrophy and altered gene expression in psoriatic skin lesions, which may relate to the observed hair loss in these areas.

Scalp skin condition LEDS has similar features to Zoon's balanitis, a mucosal skin disorder.

This case study reports that a 9-year-old Nepalese boy with tinea capitis successfully recovered with systemic antifungal therapy, though experienced focal alopecia without recurrence at a two-year follow-up.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

This study outlines trichodynia, a painful scalp condition often linked with various types of alopecia and psychiatric disorders, noting the absence of specific treatments and highlighting the need for further research on therapeutic options.

This case report described a patient with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp who was resistant to multiple treatments, suggesting that combination therapy may be more effective than monotherapy for managing refractory cases of this condition.

This case report documents an instance of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in an 84-year-old man, highlighting that this rare condition, often linked with androgenic alopecia and autoimmune diseases, typically responds to high-potency topical steroid treatment.

This article explains that proliferating trichilemmal tumors, originating in the hair follicle, can exhibit low-grade malignant potential, and recommends wide excision to minimize recurrence risk, but reports no new clinical findings.

This report of two pediatric cases suggests that careful diagnosis of scalp lesions as possible dermatophytic infections is crucial to avoid inappropriate surgical treatment and facilitate proper conservative management.

In this report, researchers describe a case of scalp discoid lupus erythematosus unresponsive to topical treatments, where hydroxychloroquine administered at 200 mg/day led to complete resolution of skin lesions in five months.

This case report challenges the traditional view by documenting reversible vision loss following scalp injections of platelet-rich plasma, attributed to an inflammatory or microvascular event, treatable with corticosteroids.

In this case report, an elderly woman with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp showed complete closure of eroded areas after treatment with prednisone and topical tacrolimus, resulting in stable scarring alopecia.

A skin condition called pyodermatitis vegetans was found in a patient with multiple myeloma for the first time.

This article does not contain an abstract, so it provides no new research findings or clinical results.

A patient had both chronic lupus and systemic scleroderma, requiring careful treatment to manage symptoms.

This review synthesizes current evidence on therapies for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, noting that biologics show promise for treatment-resistant cases, though systemic retinoids remain the first-line therapy.

Pimecrolimus cream is not effective for treating alopecia areata.

The document concludes that diagnosing and managing plaque psoriasis, particularly in sensitive areas, is challenging and requires careful differentiation from similar skin conditions.
