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
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]
Unfortunately, hair regrowth was not sustained following the cessation of treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
The prognosis is variable and depends on the etiology and severity of hair loss. [amboss.com]
Prognosis - T-cell immunodeficiency- congenital alopecia and nail dystrophy Without effective treatment, most affected individuals live only into infancy or early childhood. [checkorphan.org]
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 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]
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]
Etiology
Genetic susceptibility plays a role in ARM etiology with heritability estimates 45% (2). Several studies have used a genome- wide linkage approach to detect regions of the genome, which potentially contain genes involved in the etiology of ARM. [scinapse.io]
The prognosis is variable and depends on the etiology and severity of hair loss. [amboss.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]
Etiology The genetic basis of autosomal dominant PPK-CA is unknown. Transmission appears to be autosomal dominant. Genetic counseling Transmission appears to be autosomal dominant. [orpha.net]
The exact etiology of this condition remains unknown. Rarely, it may be associated with other disorders such as Down's syndrome and phakomatosis pigmentovascularis. The diagnosis is based on its distinct clinical appearance. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
