Abstract EN

Temporal triangular alopecia (TTA), also known as congenital triangular alopecia, is a nonscarring, noninflammatroy, circumscribed form of alopecia.

TTA has been associated with several disorders, such as Phakomatosis Pigmentovascularis.

Hair restoration surgery using follicular unit transplantation has been a successful treatment modality for TTA.

Herein we report such a success that was sustained for over six years.
