December 2024 in “Skin Appendage Disorders” This case report discusses a 58-year-old woman with a history of stage IB mycosis fungoides (MF) who developed alopecia mimicking lichen planopilaris (LPP) and alopecia areata (AA). The folliculotropic variant of MF (FMF) presented diagnostic challenges due to overlapping clinical features, necessitating histopathological evaluation for accurate diagnosis. The patient exhibited scarring and non-scarring alopecic patches, with trichoscopy revealing follicular involvement. Histological analysis confirmed FMF, characterized by atypical lymphocytic infiltrate and follicular destruction. Treatment with NB-UVB, isotretinoin, and intralesional corticosteroid injections led to symptomatic improvement. The case emphasizes the importance of histopathological evaluation and a multidisciplinary approach for effective management of FMF.
