title: [Quinquad's folliculitis decalvans and tufted hair].
abstract: We observed a case of folliculitis decalvans involving the beard and the scalp with a tufted hair folliculitis aspect in the occipital region. The presence of two clinical presentations in the same patient has not been reported in the literature. This would suggest that the two entities could be morphological aspects of the same pathological process which might cause either atrophy with loss or the annexes or tufted hair folliculitis depending upon the depts and destructive capacity of the inflammatory process.
