Article Synopsis
- Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is a common skin condition mainly affecting adult women, especially among the black population, with differences in severity and onset based on race.
- The study aimed to review and summarize the key trichoscopic (microscopic) features of scalp DLE in individuals with darker skin tones, as previous research in this area is limited.
- Key findings include disrupted honeycomb patterns, lack of pinpoint white dots, keratotic plugs, blue-gray dots, and unusual blood vessel patterns, which can help in early diagnosis and potentially improve patient outcomes.

- - Dermoscopy is a valuable imaging technique for dermatologists that helps distinguish between neoplastic (tumor-related) and inflammatory skin conditions, especially in tricky cases where they may appear similar.
- - A review of literature identified key dermoscopic features that can aid in differentiating 12 common challenging skin scenarios, such as distinguishing between Bowen's disease and psoriasis.
- - The study concludes that dermoscopy can significantly assist in differentiating between clinically similar skin lesions, improving diagnosis and treatment strategies.
Trichoscopic Features of Scalp Discoid Lupus Erythematosus versus Lichen Planopilaris: A Systematic Review.
Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol
April 2024
Department of Dermatology and Venereology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar, OD, India.
Introduction: Lichen planopilaris (LPP) and discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) are primary scarring alopecias that pose diagnostic challenges clinically, where trichoscopy features may provide benefit in delineating these two cicatricial alopecia, and also helps in assessing the evolution and therapeutic response. To date, there are few reviews on dermoscopic findings in differentiating these two alopecias.
Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted using the PubMed and Google Scholar databases.
