“…174,199,[288][289][290][291][292] Host predisposition to infection due to systemic or local immune deficits and S aureus strainerelated properties have been cited as causal factors. [288][289][290]292 Several acquired and inherited immune disturbances have been associated with folliculitis decalvans 203,[292][293][294][295][296][297][298][299] ; however, the majority of affected patients have no demonstrable systemic 289,290,300,301 or lesional 289,290 immune abnormality. It may be that strain-specific virulence factors of S aureus, including superantigen production 288,290 and intracellular persistence after phagocytosis, 288,302 account for expression of disease.…”

“…9,290,295,313 Limited data on oral isotretinoin 312,313 suggest that it is ineffective. 296 Isolated reports of improvement with shaving 313 and oral L-tyrosine administration 314 require further study. Intranasal eradication of S aureus with topical antibacterial agents has been empirically advocated.…”

“…However, the only report associating a hereditary disease with FD was described in a patient with Darier disease, a rare disturbance of keratinization [10]. Although secondary scarring alopecia is very common in different forms of EB, especially in areas of trauma due to rubbing and repetitive blisters [8], to our knowledge, this is the first report of a patient presenting with EBP in association with FD, a primary neutrophilic scarring alopecia.…”
