A 4-year-old girl had a rare hair disorder affecting only part of her scalp.

This review discusses Toe Tourniquet Syndrome, a frequently misdiagnosed condition that can lead to necrosis if untreated, and calls for increased clinician awareness, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes successful treatment of an 11-week-old infant with hair thread tourniquet syndrome causing toe swelling, highlighting the condition's rarity and the critical need for prompt surgical intervention.

This study reports two new cases of Gomez-Lopez-Hernandez syndrome and suggests that trigeminal anesthesia and/or partial scalp alopecia may be key criteria for diagnosis.

This case report documents the first confirmed mutation-proved instance of Clouston syndrome in a large Chinese-Malaysian family, linked to the c.263C>T (A88V) mutation in the GJB6 gene, with no available treatment but highlighting the importance of genetic counseling.

This case report identifies a 32-year-old woman with undiagnosed PHPT-1a who exhibited complete pseudo-anodontia and persistent patchy alopecia areata, suggesting these may be new nonclassical features of a GNAS pathogenic variant.

This study investigated a Labrador Retriever with paw pad hyperkeratosis and identified a unique de novo heterozygous missense variant in the GJB6 gene, suggesting its potential role in the condition, analogous to Clouston syndrome in humans, although differences between species may provide further insights.

This case report describes an instance of autosomal recessive uncombable hair syndrome caused by maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 1.

This study reports the first case of mandibuloacral dysplasia syndrome associated with MTX2 gene mutation in the Chinese population, expanding the known spectrum of MTX2 mutations.

This study diagnosed a group of six girls with various ectodermal abnormalities, identifying cranio-skeletal malformations consistent with focal dermal hypoplasia (Goltz syndrome), and found heterozygous mutations in the PORCN gene in two children.

This report describes a case of Ambras syndrome with a chromosomal inversion on chromosome 8, similar to a previous case, but not associated with altered androgen levels.

This correspondence describes two patients with both epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type, and loose anagen hair syndrome, an association not previously reported in the literature.

This case report outlines a 10-year-old boy who experienced a six-year history of twenty-nail dystrophy, highlighting the importance of physical examination for early diagnosis and management of nail disorders, with his primary symptoms involving nail disfigurement and alopecia areata, but no other health issues.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

This study identified a homozygous missense mutation in the KRTHB5 gene linked to pure hair–nail ectodermal dysplasias in a large consanguineous Pakistani family, providing new insights into the condition's molecular pathogenesis.

This case report discusses hair-tourniquet syndrome in infants, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent serious complications.

This case report aims to raise physician awareness about 'toe-tourniquet' syndrome, which can lead to digit loss if not promptly treated, and to prevent its misdiagnosis as child abuse.

A woman with Parry-Romberg syndrome developed new curly hair on one side of her scalp, a condition not previously linked to the syndrome.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.

This article discusses the history and understanding of Tay syndrome, recognizing it as a distinct condition related to ichthyotic erythroderma, mental retardation, and brittle hair but reports no new clinical results.
