Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) is the most common cause of scarring alopecia in middle-aged black women. Trichoscopy is a noninvasive tool for diagnosis and follow-up of hair and scalp disorders. To date, limited studies have focused on its applicability to CCCA in existing literature.
The present study aimed to describe the trichoscopic findings of 11 dark-skinned women with confirmed CCCA and provide a comprehensive discussion of our current knowledge regarding trichoscopy of this disease through a literature review. A thorough understanding of CCCA trichoscopy holds significant promise for early confirmation and treatment.
By doing so, it is possible to mitigate the development of complications and alleviate the subsequent impact on patients' quality of life.
中心离心性瘢痕性秃发(CCCA)是中年黑人女性瘢痕性秃发最常见的原因。毛发镜检查是一种用于诊断和随访毛发及头皮疾病的非侵入性工具。迄今为止,现有文献中针对其在CCCA中的适用性的研究有限。
本研究旨在描述11例确诊为CCCA的深色皮肤女性的毛发镜检查结果,并通过文献综述对我们目前关于该疾病毛发镜检查的知识进行全面讨论。深入了解CCCA毛发镜检查对早期确诊和治疗具有重要意义。
通过这样做,有可能减轻并发症的发生,并减轻对患者生活质量的后续影响。
