“…Let us consider the major distinctive and shared features of LPP and FFA at the level of clinical presentation ( Table 1 and Figure 1 a and b) and (immuno-)histopathology ( Table 1 and Figure 2 a and b). These tables and figures show the histopathological similarity of both PCAs in striking contrast to their very distinct clinical phenotypes (although overlap variants do exist [ Du et al., 2020 ; Griggs et al., 2021 ; Rigopoulos et al., 2015 ; Vañó-Galván et al, 2019a ]). Thus, one key—as yet unanswered—question is how can two histologically deceptively similar diseases be clinically so distinct?…”

“…Scalp pruritus is a frequent complaint in the dermatological area and might be a sign of different local or systemic diseases. Recently described scalp diseases, including FAPD and LPPDP, might also be associated with scalp itching 51–53 . These types of alopecia can be easily mistaken for other dermatological issues: trichoscopy‐guided biopsies are recommended in these cases as they might help with the diagnoses and management of these types of scarring alopecia.…”

Introduction Hair disorders are one of the most common conditions within dermatology practice but, although new diagnostic tools and therapeutic options have arisen, the management of these patients still represents a major clinical challenge. ObjectiveThis study aimed at gathering information and achieving consensus on relevant recommendations on the latest advances in alopecia, trichoscopy and hair dermocosmetics.Methods Experts of the steering committee consulted the available evidence on trichology-related areas from the past 5 years and formulated recommendations based on the evidence and their experience. A modified two-round Delphi procedure was performed among 45 European dermatologists experts in trichology to consult their degree of agreement on twenty recommendations, using a 4-point Likert scale. Consensus was defined as >80% of participants scoring either 1 (totally agree) or 2 (agree). ResultsIn the first round of the Delphi questionnaire, 75% of the recommendations reached consensus. Those that were not agreed upon were reformulated by the steering committee and voted again after an online meeting, where consensus was achieved in all recommendations.Conclusions All recommendations reached consensus after the two-round Delphi questionnaire and may be useful in clinical practice for dermatologists. The participants agreed that besides this consensus, further clinical studies are needed to assess the benefits of the emerging tools and treatments and to clarify the controversies that still exist in the field, aiming at improving patients' quality of life.

“…Pueden observarse pili torti debido a la fibrosis en el infundíbulo. En la piel cabelluda en fases iniciales de fibrosis se pueden reconocer desde zonas rosadas (milky-red) hasta zonas más blancas con mayor fibrosis; en los fototipos altos persiste la red de pigmento en las placas alopécicas y los vasos sanguíneos parecen elongados y lineales [19][20][21][22] (Fig. 1).…”

Las alopecias cicatrizales se consideran un grupo de enfermedades del pelo que ha tenido en la actualidad un gran campo de investigación. Existen múltiples herramientas para realizar un algoritmo diagnóstico, entre ellas la tricoscopia, el estudio histopatológico o la microscopia confocal, aunque algunas tienen desventajas en cuanto a costo o son invasivas como la biopsia; por esa razón, la tricoscopia ha resultado un método accesible, de bajo costo, no invasivo y puede efectuarse al momento de la consulta para establecer un diagnóstico más específico e instituir un tratamiento oportuno. La importancia de conocer e identificar los patrones tricológicos de forma temprana para las alopecias, en especial las alopecias cicatrizales, radica en identificar los signos que eviten la progresión de la enfermedad, sobre todo en etapas reversibles.
