This case report identifies a 23-year-old man with congenital triangular alopecia, a non-scarring alopecia characterized by preserved follicles and vellus hair, for which unnecessary interventions should be avoided.

This article discusses congenital atrichia and presents no new clinical findings.

This abstract provides website information and publication navigation for JAMA Dermatology, but it includes no research results or study findings.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy as a valuable diagnostic and prognostic tool for various hair and scalp disorders, reporting no new clinical results.

Injecting triamcinolone into the eyebrow area may help eyelash regrowth in alopecia areata patients.

This study found that specific histologic features in skin biopsies can help support a diagnosis of traumatic alopecia (trichotillomania), but not all markers are distinct to the condition.

This article examines the morphological and physiological characteristics of eyelash follicles and offers clinical management suggestions for conditions like eyelash loss and trichomegaly, but presents no new clinical results.

This review describes distinct trichoscopic findings for various alopecias in individuals with skin of color, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes an uncommon occurrence of trichofolliculoma in a 64-year-old male, which was easily treated through simple excision.

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 case report describes a 3-year-old boy diagnosed with temporal triangular alopecia, emphasizing the importance of clinical and dermoscopic examination for correct diagnosis due to the condition's rarity and risk of misdiagnosis.

This study found that adult trichotillomania is a chronic disorder often linked with high psychiatric comorbidity and suggests the tension-reduction criterion in diagnoses might be too restrictive.

This case report documents a novel occurrence of bilateral trichomegaly with alopecia areata in a healthy 3-year-old girl, without known underlying health conditions or medication use.

This study found that trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing and assessing the severity of alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia in patients when visual diagnosis is challenging.

This case report described a 12-year-old girl initially misdiagnosed with alopecia areata who showed improvement in trichotillomania symptoms after treatment with psychotropic drugs and N-acetylcysteine, highlighting the need for more research to develop standardized treatment guidelines for this chronic condition.

In this case study, a 74-year-old woman improved her scalp hair condition by reducing chronic rubbing, leading to hair regrowth without ongoing abnormalities after behavior modification.
