- A study involving 200 Egyptian children with focal non-cicatricial alopecia identified alopecia areata and tinea capitis as the most common diagnoses, with trichoscopy highlighting specific features that aid in distinguishing these conditions.
- The findings suggest that incorporating trichoscopy into routine evaluations greatly enhances diagnostic accuracy and helps in the effective treatment of hair loss disorders in children.
