Alopecia areata (AA) is a complex autoimmune disease manifesting as a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by non-scarring patches of hair loss over the face, scalp, and body. Several treatments have been proposed for AA, but none are curative nor achieve a state of remission. The present consensus statement aims to present the evidence- and experience-based recommendations on the diagnosis and management of AA in Saudi Arabia. The Ministry of Health in Saudi Arabia has opted to initiate a meeting of a multidisciplinary group to discuss and concede on this topic. Eight dermatology experts and clinical pharmacists convened in eight consensus meetings. All content presented in this document was agreed upon by this working group, including diagnosis and severity assessment, prognostic indicators, and therapeutic options for AA. Special consideration was given to special patient populations including pediatric patients and patients with less frequent presentations of AA. Updates of the current recommendations will take place as new evidence evolves in the treatment of AA.
斑秃（AA）是一种复杂的自身免疫性疾病，表现为一种慢性炎症性疾病，其特征是面部、头皮和身体出现非瘢痕性脱发斑。针对斑秃已提出了几种治疗方法，但均无法治愈，也无法实现缓解状态。本共识声明旨在提出基于证据和经验的关于沙特阿拉伯斑秃诊断和管理的建议。沙特阿拉伯卫生部已决定召开一次多学科小组会议，以讨论并就该主题达成一致意见。八位皮肤科专家和临床药剂师参加了八次共识会议。本文件中提出的所有内容均得到该工作组的认可，包括斑秃的诊断和严重程度评估、预后指标以及治疗选择。特别考虑了特殊患者群体，包括儿科患者和斑秃发病率较低的患者。随着斑秃治疗方面新证据的出现，将对当前建议进行更新。
