Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Lipedematous alopecia and lipedematous scalp are two similar unusual conditions mostly affecting healthy black women. OBJECTIVE:The purpose of our study was to report three cases of this condition with emphasis on clinical and histologic findings, and to review the literature on the subject. METHODS:The study includes clinical, echographic, and histologic findings of 3 patients, complemented with a literature review. RESULTS:Two cases of lipedematous alopecia and one of lipedematous scalp in 3 white women had echographic confirmation of an increased subcutaneous layer. The presence of ectatic lymphatic vessels in the two cases with hair loss was particularly emphasized. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings suggest a lessened role of racial factors, but confirms the sex implications in these related conditions, and stress the potential significance of lymphangiectatic vessels in the development of alopecia in these patients.
