摘要
Postoperative alopecia is a pressure-induced, circumscribed area of occipital hair loss, usually after lengthy operative procedures. Prolonged hair follicle ischemia, a result of constant pressure from improper head positioning, is thought to be causative. Most commonly a reversible condition, it can be quite distressing for a patient. The maxillofacial surgeon must understand the pathophysiology and natural history of the condition to correctly identify it and employ measures to prevent it. Here we report a case of postoperative (pressure) alopecia in a female patient after orthognathic surgery.
