• Resumen

  • This article reviews the histologic findings of alopecia, preceded by a brief discussion of biopsy and processing techniques, the normal follicular anatomy and cycle, and expected findings in transverse sections. Subtle histologic abnormalities will be missed unless the normal follicular anatomy and follicular cycle, when viewed in transverse sections, are understood.
