Apoptosis in abortive hair follicular components in the organoid nevus.
A previously undescribed fact that a small number of apoptotic bodies are present in about 62% of abortive hair follicles of the organoid nevus is discovered. The immaturity and frequency of apoptosis in the hair follicles seemed to be closely related to the hairless condition of the organoid nevus.
