Poster Presentations on Hair Disorders: Case Reports

    TLDR Hair disorders are complex and varied, with diverse treatments available.
    The document presented various case reports on hair disorders, highlighting the complexity and variety of these conditions. Notable cases included a 53-year-old female with alopecia totalis and multiple systemic issues, a 24-year-old male with cicatricial alopecia due to lichen sclerosus et atrophicans, and a case of short anagen hair syndrome linked to a ventricular septal defect. Trichodynia associated with female pattern hair loss was treated successfully with spironolactone. Other cases involved pili torti with mental retardation, alopecia areata with lichen sclerosus et atrophicus, and a positive response to methotrexate in lichen planopilaris. Woolly hair syndrome was diagnosed using trichoscopy, and a rare case of eruptive vellus hair cysts was described. These reports underscored the diverse manifestations and potential treatments for hair disorders.
