Congenital triangular alopecia, despite its name, usually presents in children between 3 and 6 years of age, but adult patients have been reported. [miami.pure.elsevier.com]

Usually it is seen at 2–3 years of age but occasionally can be present at birth. Here we present a unique case of triangular alopecia involving the eyebrows in a 23-year-old man. He had bilateral symmetrical involvement since birth. [casereports.bmj.com]

Case Report A 2-year-old male child presented with a single fixed area of hair loss over the occipital scalp, which was present since birth. It was asymptomatic and nonprogressive in nature. [cdriadvlkn.org]

• Persistent Cough

  PCD can present with recurrent sinus and ear infections, lung effusions, persistent cough and pneumonia. Other findings may include asplenia or polysplenia. [phillyderm.org]

  We have thus mapped the gene for this hereditary form of isolated congenital alopecia to a locus on chromosome 8p21-22 (ALUNC [alopecia universalis congenitalis]). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

If any associations are identified, workup for a syndromic cause should be performed and genetic counseling may be appropriate depending on the diagnosis (96). For many of these conditions, there is currently no effective treatment. [frontiersin.org]

Treatment with corticosteroids, either topical or intralesional steroids, is completely ineffective,[1] though Bang et al. reported successful treatment of CTA with 3% topical minoxidil in a 1-year-old girl. [cdriadvlkn.org]

This study describes the case of a 16-year-old girl that came to observation for the treatment of a congenital alopecia causing great psychological distress. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment Treatments include drugs, such as minoxidil or finasteride; surgeries, such as hair transplantation; or prostheses (wigs). [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

Prognosis The prognosis varies with the cause. It is generally much easier to lose hair than to regrow it. Even when it returns, it is often thin and less attractive than the original. Resources Periodicals Cohen, Philip. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

Prognosis was discussed with the parents of the patient and follicular unit extraction was suggested. Figure 4: Number of hair follicles are in normal range, and epidermis and dermis are normal with the absence of any inflammatory infiltrate. [ijpd.in]

The prognosis is variable and depends on the etiology and severity of hair loss. [amboss.com]

Prognosis The prognosis for children with alopecia varies with the cause of hair loss. Certain types of alopecia respond more readily to treatment. For example, hair loss in telogen effluvium usually occurs over several weeks to months, then stops. [healthofchildren.com]

ETIOLOGY The condition has been seen more in males than in females. The proportion of males affected is about twice that of females. A familial tendency is common. Cases are often seen in brothers and in brother [jamanetwork.com]

A major understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of autoimmune diseases has been the application of genome wide association scans that have identified a degree of genetic sharing among the autoimmune diseases.[10] Autoimmunity, on the other hand [en.wikipedia.org]

A powerful approach to advance our understanding of the pathophysiology of hair loss is to identify the genes underlying isolated and syndromic forms of hair loss. [jpma.org.pk]
