The Association between Number of Follicular Stelae and . . . Alopecia areata (AA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by peribulbar lymphocytic infiltration, follicular miniaturization, catagen telogen follicles, and increased follicular stelae (streamers) in skin biopsies
Histopathologic approach to alopecia It is widely believed that two samples are recommended for the evaluation of alopecia, one for vertical and one for transverse sections, particularly in non-scarring alopecia
The Association between the Number of Follicular Stelae and . . . - PubMed Our results showed that number of follicular stelae varied among AA clinical types and correlated with severity This study was the first to evaluate the correlation between the number of follicular stelae and severity of AA
Follicular streamers (stelae) in scarring and non-scarring alopecia Follicular streamers are found predominantly in non-scarring alopecia cases Streamers found at deep dermal or subcutaneous levels should be followed and identified at the FU level in order to obtain accurate follicular counts and follicular ratios needed for non-scarring alopecia diagnosis
