We present a case of this condition presenting in a 27-year-old healthy male. [pediascape.org]
Classification of these conditions often presents many nosological challenges, since underlying etiologies and pathogenetics are often not known. [howlingpixel.com]
Patients presenting with woolly hair must be examined completely to rule out cardiofaciocutaneous and Noonan syndrome. We present a 5-year-old with Type A woolly hair nevus. [ijpd.in]

This is the third reported case of precocious puberty associated with the epidermal nevus syndrome. Hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets, precocious puberty, and the epidermal nevus syndrome. Ivker R, Resnick SD, Skidmore RA. [thedoctorsdoctor.com]
There was no evidence of precocious puberty. Based on the above findings, we arrived at a diagnosis of localized woolly hair nevus. Hair microscopic examination showed non-specific features. [ijpd.in]
WHN can be associated with features like ocular defects (persistent pupillary membrane, retinal defects), precocious puberty, and epidermal nevi. [orpha.net]
(WHN may also be associated with digital abnormalities and auditory disturbance In one case an association with precocious puberty has been reported. Epidermal nevus syndrome, has been ruled out in this case by appropriate examinations. [omicsonline.org]

- Cafe-Au-Lait Spots
In addition to linear epidermal nevus, woolly hair nevus can be associated with nevus comedonicus, Cafe-au-lait spots, hypopigmented patches, hemangiomas, multiple nevi, (both congenital and acquired), precocious puberty, [10] and ocular defects like [ijpd.in]

The condition, which is often confused with curly hairs of people of certain races, is not the same. In curly hairs the curls lie separately but in case of woolly hair the curls merge together and become unmanageable. [healthiro.com]
The clinical syndromes of which woolly hair is a feature have been confused by many authors. It remains possible, however, that woolly hair is a feature of syndromes not yet characterized. Classification and etiology Autosomal dominant woolly hair. [hairscientists.org]
Histopathological examination is normal except for curved anagen hair. [9] Though the diagnosis of woolly hair nevus is clinical there may be confusion with pili torti, uncombable hair syndrome or loose anagen syndrome, and drug-induced kinking of the [ijpd.in]

Prognosis
What is the Prognosis of Epidermal Nevus? (Outcomes/Resolutions) The prognosis of Epidermal Nevus is good, especially with a surgical approach. [dovemed.com]
Etiology
Classification of these conditions often presents many nosological challenges, since underlying etiologies and pathogenetics are often not known. [howlingpixel.com]
Classification and etiology Autosomal dominant woolly hair. This has been reported in six generations of Rhineland family, suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance. 2- Autosomal recessive woolly hair. [hairscientists.org]
(Etiology) The majority of Epidermal Nevi (plural of Nevus) are sporadic, i.e. they occur after birth, without a genetic basis. [dovemed.com]
Pathophysiology
The former represent genetic transmission, whereas the woolly hair nevus is nonhereditary with exact pathophysiology unknown. Histological evaluation of woolly hair has varied in the literature. [dev.docslide.net]
