ATRICHIA WITH PAPULAR LESIONS

Alternate names

ATRICHIA WITH PAPULAR LESIONS Is also known as papular atrichia

Description

Atrichia with papular lesions is a rare inherited form of alopecia characterized by irreversible hair loss during the neonatal period on all hear-bearing areas of the body, later associated with the development of papular lesions all over the body and preferentially on the face and extensor surfaces of the extremities.

Most common symptoms of ATRICHIA WITH PAPULAR LESIONS

  • Global developmental delay
  • Alopecia
  • Hyperhidrosis
  • Papule
  • Hypotrichosis

ALOPECIA UNIVERSALIS

Description

Alopecia universalis is the most severe form of alopecia areata, an inflammatory disease of the hair follicle, which is characterized by a complete loss of hair of the scalp and all the hair-bearing areas of the body.

Most common symptoms of ALOPECIA UNIVERSALIS

  • Absent eyebrow
  • Absent eyelashes
  • Alopecia universalis
  • Alopecia areata

MARIE UNNA HEREDITARY HYPOTRICHOSIS

Alternate names

MARIE UNNA HEREDITARY HYPOTRICHOSIS Is also known as hypotrichosis, marie unna type, marie unna hereditary hypotrichosis 1, muhh, muhh1, hypotrichosis, marie unna type, 1, marie unna congenital hypotrichosis

Description

Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis (MUHH) is a rare autosomal dominant hair loss disorder characterized by the absence or scarcity of scalp hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes at birth; coarse and wiry hair during childhood; and progressive hair loss beginning around puberty.

Most common symptoms of MARIE UNNA HEREDITARY HYPOTRICHOSIS

  • Alopecia
  • Cleft lip
  • Hypotrichosis
  • Oral cleft
  • Hirsutism

ALOPECIA UNIVERSALIS CONGENITA; ALUNC

Alternate names

ALOPECIA UNIVERSALIS CONGENITA; ALUNC Is also known as atrichia, generalized

Description

Alopecia universalis congenita is a severe autosomal recessive form of alopecia characterized by a complete absence of hair development affecting all scalp and body hair (Nothen et al., 1998).This rare disorder is clearly distinct from alopecia areata (AA1 ), which has an autoimmune basis with probable genetic predisposition.

Most common symptoms of ALOPECIA UNIVERSALIS CONGENITA; ALUNC

  • Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis
  • Alopecia
  • Neoplasm of the skin
  • Alopecia universalis
  • Alopecia areata
