Background: Membranous aplasia cutis congenita (MACC) presents at birth characterized by oval epidermis defect. Skin lesions with MACC have various clinic manifestations. In recent years, the usefulness of trichoscopy (scalp dermoscopy) has been reported for hair loss diseases. However, the dermoscopic features of MACC were mostly reported by case reports.Objectives: To summarized the obvious dermoscopic characteristics of MACC.Materials & Methods: These 56 cases met the clinical diagnostic criteria for MACC without forceps delivery complications or other birth injuries. To find the dermoscopic characteristics of MACC by summarizing 56 infants' dermoscopic pictures. Results:The dermoscopic manifestation of MACC are characterized by hair follicle openings and hair deficiency in the center of skin lesions, translucent epidermis, hair root and hair bulb arranged along the margins of skin lesion. Conclusion:The typical dermoscopic characteristics of MACC could help clinicians to early diagnose and differential diagnosis.
