RESUMO
Two cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) were reported.Case 1,a 44-year-old woman,presented with progressive recession of the frontotemporal hairline for 4 years and multiple skincolored facial papules for 2 years.Skin examination showed that the frontotemporal hairline was receded,the local skin was smooth and thin,and a few remaining fine hairs could be seen.Additionally,eyebrows,axillary and pubic hairs were partly shed,and plenty of millet-sized skin-colored papules were diffusedly distributed on the frontotemporal region and bilateral mandibular angles.Dermatoscopy showed reduced hair follicular openings,different hair shaft diameters,cicatricial white patches and perifollicular erythema.Case 2,a 55-year-old woman,presented with progressive frontotemporal hair loss for 2 years.Skin examination revealed the recession of bilateral frontotemporal hairline and partial loss of eyebrows,axillary and pubic hairs.Histopathological examinations of the 2 patients both revealed perifollicular infiltration of lymphocytes,liquefaction degeneration of basal cells and perifollicular lamellar fibrosis.Clinical manifestations and histopathological features of the 2 patients both confirmed the diagnosis of FFA.
