UV-enhanced trichoscopy helps diagnose hair shaft disorders like pili annulati.

This case report describes a 7-year-old boy with Netherton's syndrome, highlighting the identification of the tricorrhexis invaginata hair defect using a photographically illustrated scalp biopsy, which had not been visually documented before.

This study identified the distribution of keratin-associated proteins during cornification in the epidermis of reptiles, revealing unique structural characteristics in sauropsid keratin proteins compared to other vertebrates.

In this case report, a five-year-old girl with a bald patch was diagnosed with congenital triangular alopecia, a localized non-scarring condition that typically remains unchanged and lacks effective treatment.

This article discusses eruptive vellus hair cysts, describing their clinical characteristics, and reports no new research findings.

This report provides the first microscopic description of pachyonychia congenita-associated alopecia, identifying a combination of histological features that might be unique to this condition.

This study found that the cytoplasmic dynein component Dynlt3 is essential for effective melanosome transport and transfer in mouse melanocytes, linking melanosome positioning and acidity to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This case study describes the clinical presentation and diagnostic findings of an 80-year-old woman with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome.

This study reports a rare case of a 40-year-old woman with multiple calcified trichilemmal cysts, associated with alopecia universalis and suggesting a potential genetic link.

This study reports a case of cystic panfolliculoma, highlighting the role of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in its pathogenesis and explaining its histological resemblance to trichofolliculoma.

This case study highlights the importance of an integrated diagnostic and treatment approach for children with rare genetic disorders, as demonstrated in a 10-year-old girl with CNOT3 syndrome, characterized by symptoms like mental retardation, gastrointestinal issues, and unique facial features.

This study described specific skin and hair follicle abnormalities in three Japanese patients with Cantu syndrome, which may relate to the regulation role of SUR2 in hair follicle growth.

This case report identified cutaneous epitheliotropic T-cell lymphoma in a 3-year-old male sugar glider after skin biopsies, highlighting the need for thorough diagnostic evaluations in exotic pets.

This study diagnosed an 11-year-old girl with initial androgenetic alopecia and monilethrix after observing unique hair shaft abnormalities and skin conditions, unlike her affected parents.

This study reported no Cx30 expression in normal interfollicular human epidermis and minimal expression in some skin structures, with faint detection in porokeratosis of Mibelli patient skin.

This report presents the first known case of a proliferating hybrid cyst containing both epidermoid and trichilemmal components on the scrotum of a 44-year-old man.

This study found that CTCF is crucial for proper skin and hair follicle development in mice, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and gene expression in keratin loci.

This case report describes successful hair regrowth after removing a nevus in a patient with perinevoid alopecia and concentric regrowth, which are rare patterns of alopecia areata.

This study identified a subpopulation of neural crest-derived progenitor cells in human corneal endothelial tissue from normal and Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy donors, which may have potential for future cell therapy development.

This article reviews Cronkhite-Canada syndrome as a distinct condition from Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and familial polyposis, with cases showing gastrointestinal polyposis, skin, hair, nail abnormalities, and hypoproteinemia.

This study describes a mouse model for Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis, identifying mutations in the hairless gene that result in sparse or absent hair and cyst-like hair follicles.

This case report describes a 36-year-old man with tinea incognito manifesting as asymptomatic, flat patches of alopecia, which did not improve with standard treatments.

This case report highlights the importance of maintaining clinical suspicion for tinea incognito in patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia who do not respond to typical corticosteroid treatments, as misdiagnosis can complicate treatment.

Surgeons should know about pilomatricoma for accurate diagnosis, even though it's rare.

This study found that a peripilar white gray halo around hair emergence is a highly specific and sensitive dermatoscopic feature for diagnosing central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American patients with mild central thinning.

This case report describes a 9-year-old boy with atypical alopecic and aseptic nodules of the scalp, suggesting possible inclusion within the spectrum of typical AANS and DCS due to its prepubertal onset and facial involvement.

This report describes a 20-year-old Chinese man with a rare combination of congenital compound and blue melanocytic nevus associated with alopecia areata.

This study reports that the composite galeal frontalis pericranial flap can be successfully used for reconstruction in anterior cranial base surgery, effectively sealing cerebrospinal fluid leaks, while minimizing complications like numbness and skin necrosis.
