Linear and Annular Lupus Panniculitis of the Scalp: Case Report with Emphasis on Trichoscopic Findings and Review of the Literature

摘要

Linear and annular lupus panniculitis of the scalp (LALPS) is a unique subset of lupus panniculitis, which results in non-scarring alopecia along the Blaschko line of the scalp in an otherwise healthy young patient. Numerous cases have been reported around the world, but data on their trichoscopic findings and correlations with the underlying pathology is sparse. We hereby present a case of 23-year-old male with LALPS and further describe his trichoscopic findings as well as their correlations with histopathological features.
