Treatment of Short Anagen Syndrome With Low‐Dose Oral Minoxidil
Short anagen syndrome (SAS) is a rare condition characterized by a shortened anagen phase, resulting in an inability to grow long scalp hair. Low-dose oral minoxidil (LDOM) has recently emerged as an effective treatment for a variety of pediatric hair disorders. This report presents two pediatric patients with SAS who responded favorably to treatment with LDOM.
