A 308 nm excimer laser successfully treated a boy with a rare skin condition after about a year of weekly sessions.

This study identified key dermoscopic features in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides patients, showing that dilation of follicular openings and spiky follicular keratosis are specific indicators of follicular involvement, potentially aiding in diagnosis, classification, and treatment decisions.

This study reported that frontal fibrosing alopecia predominantly affects postmenopausal women and identified potential risk factors like frequent β-blocker use and sunscreen application, indicating the need for further research.

This study reports a case of frontal fibrosing alopecia associated with hepatitis C treatment involving interferon and ribavirin.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition primarily affecting postmenopausal women, highlighting its rare occurrence in men.

This case study describes a patient with rapidly progressing follicular mycosis fungoides, highlighting its unusual histology and challenges in diagnosing it against cutaneous B-cell lymphoma.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia is a scarring hair loss condition mainly affecting postmenopausal women, with unclear causes.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing human H-ferritin showed mild growth retardation and a temporary hairless phenotype, highlighting H-ferritin's physiological roles.

This review assessed trichoscopic findings in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides of the scalp, reporting features like milky-red globules and distinct vascular patterns, but noted the predominance of small studies and the need for larger research to validate trichoscopy's diagnostic utility for this condition.

This study observed that repeated hair follicle sampling is feasible and reliable for measuring FMR1 mRNA and FMRP in individuals with Fragile X syndrome, supporting its use in longitudinal studies.

This article reviews the use of high-frequency ultrasonography to visualize nail units and scalps in dermatology, highlighting its potential benefits for disease assessment and treatment monitoring, but reports no new clinical results.

In this report, two pediatric cases of solitary basaloid follicular hamartoma, a rare benign skin malformation often misdiagnosed, were documented using dermoscopy, highlighting its clinical diversity and the need for accurate diagnosis.

This case report presents three sisters with familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, making it the 25th documented familial case, with treatment results observed in one sister.

This article reviews frontal fibrosing alopecia, exploring its characteristics, demographics, and associated conditions, and calls for controlled trials due to an increase in worldwide cases; it reports no new findings.

This study suggests that folliculin, mutated in Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, and its partner FNIP1 may play a role in energy and nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR pathways.

A 64-year-old man had a rare skin cancer near his ear, unresponsive to antibiotics, with specific skin and hair follicle changes.

This study describes the diverse histopathological patterns and clinical features observed in patients with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, emphasizing the importance of accurate recognition to avoid diagnostic errors.

This study found that the fuzzy mutation in mice is linked to both structural hair defects and accelerated hair follicle cycling, influencing the regulation of hair cycle phases such as catagen and anagen.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of functional hypothalamic amenorrhea in adolescent girls and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, D-OCT imaging revealed distinct structural and vascular changes in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the technique's potential for diagnosing and monitoring the condition's activity.

This study found that a modified Ferriman-Gallwey score of 11 may be appropriate for diagnosing hirsutism in Turkish women, but should be adjusted based on individual factors like age, skin type, and family history.

This study found that evaluating terminal hair growth on the chin, thighs, and either the upper lip or lower abdomen could streamline the modified Ferriman-Gallwey scoring, aiding hirsutism diagnosis under pandemic conditions.

Dermoscopy helps diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying specific scalp features.

This study found that human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells demonstrated enhanced wound healing capabilities compared to umbilical cord-derived stem cells in laboratory and animal models.

This study found that loss of the folliculin protein delays transferrin receptor recycling, leading to iron deficiency and suggesting a role in the mechanisms of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome.

This case report presented a 52-year-old man with cutaneous focal mucinosis, exhibiting rare follicular induction of the epidermis, underscoring the importance of recognizing this association in differential diagnoses.

This case report highlights the importance of considering frontal fibrosing alopecia in young women, emphasizing early diagnosis to preserve hair and limit inflammation.
