Alopecia areata (AA) over scalp is known to present in various shapes and extents of hair loss. Typically it presents as circumscribed patches of alopecia with underlying skin remaining normal. We describe a rare variant of AA presenting in linear band-like form. Only four cases of linear alopecia have been reported in medical literature till today, all four being diagnosed as lupus erythematosus profundus.
头皮斑秃（AA）已知会呈现出各种形状和不同程度的脱发。通常表现为边界清晰的脱发斑，其下方皮肤保持正常。我们描述了一种罕见的呈线状带状形式的斑秃变体。迄今为止，医学文献中仅报道过4例线状脱发病例，所有4例均被诊断为深部红斑狼疮。
