Telogen hair loss and androgenetic-like alopecia in GAPO syndrome
1Department of Dermatology and Dermatological Surgery, Jinnah Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan.
Abstract:
Growth retardation, Alopecia, Pseudoanodontia and Optic atrophy (GAPO) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive condition whose cardinal features include a recognizable craniofacial dysmorphosis, growth retardation, alopecia, pseudoanodontia, and premature aging. We report on a 2-year-old Pakistani man affected with GAPO syndrome who additionally shows an androgenetic-like alopecia with normal testosterone levels and telogen hair loss. These are novel findings in GAPO syndrome.
