Permanent hair removal with lasers may cure itchy black hair bristles on the back.

This study described trichilemmal cysts, firm lumps that form from blocked hair follicles, typically found on the scalp but also less commonly on other body parts, affecting less than 10% of the population and possibly inherited as an autosomal dominant trait.

This case study documents the co-existence of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome and loose anagen syndrome in a patient, highlighting a previously unreported association between the two conditions.

This case report indicates that trichoscopy may significantly improve the diagnosis of Netherton syndrome by noninvasively identifying typical hair abnormalities without the need to pull hair.

This article discusses Trikostazis spinuloza (TS), a dermatological condition often misdiagnosed, and reviews its demographic, clinical, and dermoscopic features, but reports no new clinical results.

In this case study, researchers documented chronic dermatitis and ulcerative lesions in a 70-year-old Syrian man following chlorine gas exposure during the conflict, highlighting the need for healthcare planning and registries to manage long-term effects in affected populations.

This case report details a 21-year-old female diagnosed with a massive gastric trichobezoar due to trichophagia, successfully treated with single incision laparoscopic surgery and slated for psychiatric follow-up to prevent recurrence.

This case report describes a rare instance of dermatophytosis in a young cat caused by Microsporum gypseum, confirmed by molecular analyses to be Arthroderma gypseum.

In this study, a rare case of a trichilemmal cyst in a 6-year-old's upper eyelid was observed; it was identified through histopathological examination after excision, highlighting the importance of considering trichilemmal cysts in atypical pediatric eyelid swellings.

This study found that the weak tensile strength of pili torti hair may result from loose keratin intermediate filaments due to abnormalities in disulfide bonds.

This report describes a 6-year-old girl with Turner syndrome and coexisting psoriasis, alopecia areata, and trachyonychia, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

This article discusses the structure and protective function of pangolin scales, emphasizing their composition of α-keratins and β-keratins, and highlights evolutionary keratin diversification in tetrapods; it reports no new empirical findings.

This case report highlighted two atypical childhood alopecia cases: congenital atrichia without papules and Bjornstad syndrome with alopecia areata; emphasizing diagnostic challenges, notably the absence of keratotic papules usually associated with congenital atrichia and the presence of alopecia areata in Bjornstad syndrome.

This report describes a new case of isolated trichothiodystrophy with characteristic brittle hair and suggests a simplified classification scheme for understanding sulfur-deficient hair disorders.

This study found that eosinophils are a useful diagnostic feature for alopecia areata, especially when the typical "swarm of bees" lymphoid infiltrate is absent, helping differentiate it from trichotillomania.

This article reports no new clinical findings but discusses two rare dermatological conditions, trichostasis spinulosa and eruptive vellus hair cysts, and their simultaneous occurrence.

This study compared trichostasis spinulosa with keratosis pilaris and eruptive vellus hair cysts, finding differences in lesion distribution and microscopic appearance.

This study observed that the catagen phase in hairless mice displayed a slower shortening of the mutant epithelial column, resulting in longer total follicle length and abnormalities in the connective tissue sheath and glassy membrane.

This case report describes a middle-aged man with a growing scrotal mass, diagnosed as a benign proliferating trichilemmal tumor, which can mimic squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting the importance of correct diagnosis.

This study found that the ablation of Esrp1 and Esrp2 disrupts epithelial tight junctions by affecting Arhgef11 isoform expressions, highlighting a potential mechanistic link between splicing alterations and epithelial barrier defects.

This study associated ivory-colored areas observed through trichoscopy with steroid deposits in the dermis among patients with steroid-induced atrophy on the scalp.

In this case report, a 2-year-old cat with bilateral otitis externa and scabiosis was treated with a combination of antiparasitic, antibiotic, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory medications, leading to significant clinical improvement after 10 days.

This review discusses the usefulness of trichoscopy in diagnosing and managing scalp and hair disorders, reporting it as a valuable tool for linking clinical and histological findings.

This letter describes a case of a 22-year-old woman with ichthyosis serpentina and related symptoms, suggesting it as a variant form of ichthyosis associated with bamboo hair, without necessarily including atopic features.

This case report describes a rare instance of multiple sebaceous cysts over the scrotum in a 22-year-old man, highlighting the effectiveness of ultrasound imaging for diagnosis and the need for surgical intervention in severe cases.

In this study, researchers found that specific mutations in iRhom2 in mice lead to skin and hair abnormalities which depend on the presence of the protein ADAM17, suggesting a complex role for iRhom2 in tissue development and potential implications for treating tylosis with oesophageal cancer.

This chapter reviews the use of trichoscopy in hair transplantation, offering tips for hair restoration surgeons and assisting pathologists in understanding the procedure, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a rare instance of familial congenital atrichia in a 16-year-old girl, possibly involving a genetic component, as both her parents exhibit similar clinical features.

This article introduces the term "anisotrichosis" to describe the significant variation in hair shaft diameters observed in pattern alopecia, drawing a parallel to anisocytosis seen in blood smears, but reports no new research findings.

This study characterizes alopecia in ARCI, highlighting its prevalence among patients with severe forms and revealing new associated trichoscopic features.
