Beard trichotillomania (TTM) is a rather uncommon entity. Hair is not easily plucked from the beard area, as patients need forceps or tweezers to perform their task. The diagnosis of beard TTM can be quite tricky as the location is not the most frequent one. Dermoscopy might in these cases be helpful to achieve the correct diagnosis. In this article, we describe for the first time the "pluck out sign" for beard TTM.
胡须拔毛癖(TTM)是一种相当罕见的病症。由于患者需要使用镊子才能从胡须部位拔毛,所以毛发不容易从该区域拔除。胡须TTM的诊断可能相当棘手,因为该部位并非最常见的发病部位。在这些病例中,皮肤镜检查可能有助于做出正确诊断。在本文中,我们首次描述了胡须TTM的“拔出征”。
