Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune condition that causes a non-scarring form of hair loss. It is associated with several viruses and diseases. One of the viruses that have been linked to alopecia areata is the coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19). It was found to cause the onset, aggravation, or recurrence of alopecia areata in previously infected patients. We report the case of a 20-year-old woman who was medically free and presented with the severe and progressive onset of alopecia areata after one month of contracting COVID-19. This study aimed to explore the literature on COVID-19-associated severe onset alopecia areata in terms of timeline and clinical presentation.
斑秃是一种常见的自身免疫性疾病，可导致非瘢痕性脱发。它与多种病毒和疾病有关。与斑秃相关的病毒之一是2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）。研究发现，它可导致既往感染患者出现斑秃、病情加重或复发。我们报告了一例20岁女性病例，该患者身体健康，在感染COVID-19一个月后出现严重且进行性加重的斑秃。本研究旨在从时间线和临床表现方面探讨与COVID-19相关的严重斑秃的文献。
