Ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy (UVFD) is increasingly utilized in dermatooncology and general dermatology. The objective of the study was to characterize the ultraviolet-induced fluorescence trichoscopy (UVFT) findings in a wide range of hair and scalp conditions.
Consecutive patients with non-scarring alopecias (alopecia areata, AA, n = 40; androgenetic alopecia, AGA, n = 40), scarring alopecias (frontal fibrosing alopecia, FFA, n = 20; lichen planopilaris, LPP, n = 20; folliculitis decalvans, FD, n = 14; discoid lupus erythematosus, DLE, n = 23), and inflammatory scalp conditions (psoriasis, n = 30; seborrheic dermatitis, n = 14) were included. Examinations were performed using polarized trichoscopy and UVFT.
The following features were observed under UVFT: white-blue perifollicular fluorescence, white-blue interfollicular fluorescence, irregular confluent dark areas, dark follicular dots, dark perifollicular areas, regular/irregular pink-red follicular fluorescence, regular/irregular green follicular fluorescence, short white hair, black dots, exclamation mark hair, double/triple white follicular dots, pink-red fluorescence of the scales, pink-red fluorescence of the background. Non-scarring alopecias showed more frequently pink-red or green follicular fluorescence (p < 0.001), dark follicular dots (p < 0.001), short white hair (p < 0.001), and double/triple white follicular dots (p < 0.001). In scarring alopecias, white-blue perifollicular fluorescence (p < 0.001), dark perifollicular areas (p < 0.001), and dark confluent areas (p < 0.001) were more commonly observed. Psoriasis showed more frequently pink-red fluorescence of the scales than seborrheic dermatitis (p = 0.019).
UVFT supports the differentiation between scarring and non-scarring alopecia, as well as between psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis. UVFT may hypothetically facilitate the biopsy site selection by highlighting the subclinical perifollicular and interfollicular inflammation.
紫外线诱导荧光皮肤镜检查(UVFD)在皮肤肿瘤学和普通皮肤科中的应用越来越广泛。本研究的目的是描述紫外线诱导荧光毛发镜检查(UVFT)在多种毛发和头皮疾病中的表现。
纳入了连续性的非瘢痕性脱发患者(斑秃,AA,n = 40;雄激素性脱发,AGA,n = 40)、瘢痕性脱发患者(额部纤维性脱发,FFA,n = 20;扁平苔藓样毛发苔藓,LPP,n = 20;脱发性毛囊炎,FD,n = 14;盘状红斑狼疮,DLE,n = 23)以及头皮炎症性疾病患者(银屑病,n = 30;脂溢性皮炎,n = 14)。使用偏振毛发镜和UVFT进行检查。
在UVFT下观察到以下特征:毛囊周围白蓝色荧光、毛囊间白蓝色荧光、不规则融合暗区、暗毛囊点、毛囊周围暗区、规则/不规则粉红色毛囊荧光、规则/不规则绿色毛囊荧光、白色短发、黑点、惊叹号样毛发、双/三白色毛囊点、鳞屑的粉红色荧光、背景的粉红色荧光。非瘢痕性脱发更常出现粉红色或绿色毛囊荧光(p < 0.001)、暗毛囊点(p < 0.001)、白色短发(p < 0.001)和双/三白色毛囊点(p < 0.001)。在瘢痕性脱发中,更常观察到毛囊周围白蓝色荧光(p < 0.001)、毛囊周围暗区(p < 0.001)和融合暗区(p < 0.001)。银屑病鳞屑的粉红色荧光比脂溢性皮炎更常见(p = 0.019)。
UVFT有助于区分瘢痕性和非瘢痕性脱发,以及银屑病和脂溢性皮炎。理论上,UVFT可能通过突出亚临床毛囊周围和毛囊间炎症来促进活检部位的选择。
