Postoperative recipient-area folliculitis may be a cause of less or delayed growth of transplanted hair and an obvious cause of distress to the patient. No study has been done to elaborate on its clinical features and assess possible factors that may correlate with its occurrence.
To study the clinical features and possible factors that may be associated with the development of recipient-area folliculitis after follicular-unit transplantation (FUT).
Retrospective analysis of 27 patients who developed folliculitis after FUT and 28 patients without such complication.
Lesion onset ranged from 2 days to 6 months after FUT (mean 1.44 months). Lesions were mostly pustules that resolved without sequela. Statistical analysis showed that, in terms of patient characteristics (e.g., hair features, scalp condition) and the number of grafts transplanted, there was no statistically significant difference in assessed parameters between those with and without folliculitis (p<.05).
Main clinical features of postoperative folliculitis consist mostly of few to moderate self-limited pustules. In this study, regardless of management, lesions healed without scarring and without affecting graft growth. Neither patient characteristics nor number of grafts transplanted was associated with this complication.
术后受区毛囊炎可能是移植毛发减少或延迟生长的原因，也是患者明显苦恼的原因。目前尚无研究详细阐述其临床特征，并评估可能与之相关的发生因素。
研究毛囊单位移植（FUT）后发生受区毛囊炎的临床特征及可能相关的发生因素。
回顾性分析 27 例 FUT 术后发生毛囊炎和 28 例无此类并发症的患者。
皮损发病时间在 FUT 后 2 天至 6 个月（平均 1.44 个月）。皮损多为脓疱，消退后无后遗症。统计学分析显示，在患者特征（如毛发特征、头皮状况）和移植毛囊数量方面，评估参数在毛囊炎组和非毛囊炎组之间无统计学差异（p＜0.05）。
术后毛囊炎的主要临床特征为少数至中等数量的自限性脓疱。在本研究中，无论如何治疗，皮损均愈合，无瘢痕形成，不影响移植毛发生长。患者特征和移植毛囊数量均与该并发症无关。
