Abstract

Radiotherapy-induced alopecia is characterized by an anagen effluvium (AE). It may be temporary or permanent, depending on the radiation dose. The diagnosis is based on clinical history and dermatologic exam with trichoscopy being auxiliary the presence of flame hair. We describe a case of an AE induced by radiotherapy, emphasizing the trichoscopic findings.
