Resumen
Abstract:Monilethrix is a rare hereditary condition generally considered to be an autosomal dominant disorder
with variable penetrance. A case of a 6-year-old girl without a familial background for this disease is reported.
The diagnosis was made by optic microscopy and dermoscopy. A therapeutic trial with topical minoxidil was
conducted.
