Résumé

Alopecia areata is a common, chronic, inflammatory disease that causes non scarring hair loss. In several cases, alopecia areata is characterized by a diffuse and acute pattern of hair loss, defining alopecia areata incognita (AAI) and diffuse alopecia areata (DAA). These variants cause widespread thinning of the scalp and lack the typical patches of AA and are therefore often misdiagnosed. Trichoscopy is a non-invasive tool to evaluate hair disorders and to predict the disease course.
