Summary This book reviews the diagnostic and management options for patients with alopecia, allowing a greater understanding of a diverse number of differential diagnoses. This can help challenge students, residents and re-certifying physicians to consider a broad array of diagnoses based on the case presentation. Each case will be followed with a discussion and treatment content that will help provide the most up to date information available on the current disease as well as advances in treatment at that time. This will allow for a balance of both constructive case-based learning and an up-to-date coalition of the current literature. Clinical Cases in Alopecia illustrates clinical features and discusses the diagnostic and therapeutic process of both common and unusual conditions. It provides a practical case-based guide in the management of patients with alopecia and is ideal for recertifying dermatologists, training residents, medical students and practitioners in fields of primary care
