Combination of tacalcitol ointment and photodynamic therapy for the treatment of follicular mucinosis of the scalp.
    Photodiagnosis and photodynamic therapy, 2019, Volume: 27

    Follicular mucinosis (FM) is a rare inflammatory disorder histologically characterized by mucin deposition in the follicular epithelium. There is no standard therapy for FM and several treatments have been described in the literature. We present the case of a 59 year-old female affected by a recalcitrant FM with diffuse scalp alopecia, in which complete clinical remission was achieved after a combination of topical tacalcitol and photodynamic therapy.
