Acquired localized hypertrichosis has rarely been reported. Here, we describe a patient with localized hypertrichosis of the pinnae that occurred 4 months after orchiectomy and chemotherapy for a testicular carcinoma. To our knowledge, this is the first case of an acquired hypertrichosis of the pinnae after cancer therapy. We propose that in our patient either hypogonadism or the hormonal imbalance caused by the cancer therapy led to the development of the hairy pinnae, perhaps alongside a genetic predisposition for hairy ears.
获得性局部性多毛症很少见。在这里,我们描述了一例睾丸癌患者在睾丸切除术和化疗后 4 个月出现的耳廓局部性多毛症。据我们所知,这是癌症治疗后耳廓获得性多毛症的首例病例。我们提出,在我们的患者中,要么是性腺功能减退,要么是癌症治疗引起的激素失衡导致了多毛的耳廓的发展,也许还伴有多毛耳朵的遗传易感性。
