This case report described a 16-year-old girl with trichotillomania, highlighting the challenges in diagnosing the condition due to its similarity with alopecia areata and the sociocultural barriers preventing acceptance of psychiatric treatment.

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with trichotillomania also developing a gastric trichobezoar, leading to Rapunzel syndrome.

In this study, a system was developed utilizing advanced image processing to analyze hair and scalp conditions, aiding professionals in diagnosing diseases like alopecia and monitoring treatment by extracting and comparing key parameters from microscopic images.

This case series found that low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation may benefit some patients with trichotillomania, although one of five patients experienced worsening symptoms after treatment.

In this case report, researchers documented a young girl's eyebrow hair loss attributed to trichotillosis influenced by observing Jain monks' ritualistic hair plucking, highlighting the role of cultural practices in shaping compulsive behaviors.

This case study identifies early-onset trichotillomania in a 4-year-old girl, treated with behavioral interventions that led to decreased hair pulling and regrowth over three months.
