Histopathological findings are helpful for diagnosis; however, patients and their guardians might be reluctant to give consent for skin biopsies due to their concern about the invasiveness of the procedure and potential scar formation at biopsy sites. Herein, we report a case of congenital alopecia areata in which a biopsy procedure was essential for the final diagnosis, even though clinical and trichoscopic findings were suggestive of the condition. Based on a literature review, no non\u2010invasively obtainable and reliable finding exists for diagnosing congenital alopecia areata and, therefore, scalp biopsy still holds diagnostic significance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/pde.15939","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,4]],"date-time":"2025-04-04T12:04:59Z","timestamp":1743768299000},"page":"1099-1101","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Case of Congenital Alopecia Areata Successfully Diagnosed by Integrating Clinical, Trichoscopic, and\u00a0Scalp\u00a0Biopsy Findings"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"42","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-7097-5413","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Erina","family":"Taniguchi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka Metropolitan University  Osaka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6930-5521","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hisayoshi","family":"Imanishi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka Metropolitan University  Osaka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shigeki","family":"Inui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine  Suita Japan"},{"name":"Shinsaibashi Inui Dermatologic Clinic  Osaka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Manabu","family":"Ohyama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Kyorin University Faculty of Medicine  Tokyo Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Daisuke","family":"Tsuruta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Graduate School of Medicine, Osaka Metropolitan University  Osaka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1346\u20108138.14274"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000245705"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/ijt.ijt_48_17"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/jid.1950.52"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jaad.2004.06.024"}],"container-title":["Pediatric Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/pde.15939","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,24]],"date-time":"2025-09-24T14:45:33Z","timestamp":1758725133000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/pde.15939"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,4]]},"references-count":5,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/pde.15939"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/pde.15939","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0736-8046","1525-1470"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0736-8046"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1525-1470"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,4]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-12-17","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-03-11","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-04-04","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
