Article Synopsis
- Pili annulati (PA) and trichorrhexis nodosa (TN) are uncommon genetic hair disorders, with PA characterized by sparkly hair due to air-filled cavities, and TN resulting in brittle, easily breakable hair shafts.
- A 23-year-old woman with both disorders showed brittle hair and whitish nodules; tests confirmed the presence of TN alongside PA, revealing unique characteristics that suggest a genetic link, as her aunt had similar symptoms.
- While PA is usually benign, its combination with TN illustrates the complexity of hair disorders and indicates that further research is needed to understand their relationship and guide effective treatment strategies.
