This report describes a rare case of multiple trichofolliculomas on the face, which clinically resembled multiple trichoepitheliomas.

This article discusses the diagnostic approach to focal alopecia in dogs, focusing on distinguishing between pruritic skin disease and inflammatory or non-inflammatory causes; it presents no new experimental results.

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.

The document concludes that various hypersensitivity diseases in horses can be diagnosed and treated with methods like immunotherapy and medication, and early aggressive treatment is crucial for severe diseases like equine cutaneous pythiosis.

This study proposed a detailed classification of psychodermatosis by examining three cases that illustrate the interaction between the brain and skin, resulting in conditions like trichotillomania and factitious dermatitis.

In this study from a veterinary college, three cats with notoedric mange were treated with weekly subcutaneous injections of Ivermectin (0.2 mg/kg) combined with supportive therapy, leading to successful recovery over four weeks.

In this veterinary case report, a mixed breed dog with Malassezia dermatitis showed significant improvement and hair regrowth after 28 days of treatment with ketoconazole and other supportive therapies.

This study observed that using serial sectioning and d-PAS staining improved detection of Malassezia folliculitis, notably in lesions on the trunks of male patients.

In this case report, a 28-year-old woman's tinea capitis, diagnosed using a Wood's lamp, was successfully treated with oral itraconazole and ketoconazole shampoo over eight weeks.

This review discusses zinc-responsive dermatosis and lethal acrodermatitis in dogs, noting the importance of zinc supplementation and dietary correction; it presents no new clinical findings.

Discoid lupus erythematosus involves immune activation and fibrosis around hair follicles, with shared pathways across humans, dogs, and mice, suggesting potential treatments for both humans and animals.

This case report describes a patient with a severe pruritic rash and hair loss in both axillary regions, with no fluorescence under a Wood's lamp and hair follicle-centred papules observed through dermoscopy.

This review examines the potential pathogenicity of Demodex mites in skin disorders, considering systemic factors like immunological imbalance and microbiome changes, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes three instances of severe tinea favosa transmitted by Trichophyton schoenleinii in Afghan immigrants in Iran, highlighting an emerging health concern due to its potential to re-emerge in the region among immigrant populations.

This study found that in Pomeranian dogs with alopecia X, dermoscopic evaluations can supplement diagnoses, and transverse skin biopsy sections better assess hair follicle density and identify growth arrest phases compared to longitudinal sections.

The authors present a case of punctate follicular porokeratosis, suggesting it as a distinct clinical entity distinguished by keratotic lesions originating specifically from hair follicles.
