hair loss caused by body's immune response to cancer

Paraneoplastic Alopecia is hair loss that occurs as a result of an underlying cancer, rather than from the cancer treatment itself. This type of alopecia is often associated with internal malignancies, where the body's immune response to the tumor mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss.
