ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the impact of female pattern hair loss [FPHL] on the quality of life of patients using Modified Women Androgenic Alopecia - Quality of Life [mWAA-QOL] index


Methods A total of 100 patients suffering from female pattern hair loss [FPHL], who themselves were able to understand and complete the mWAA-QOL questionnaire were enrolled in the study


Results The mean mWAA-QOL score in 100 patients of FPHL was 36.1+/-6.91 with 81% of patients having moderate to severe psychosocial impact due to FPHL. Higher mean responses were noted in relation to feeling unattractive by appearance and continued hair loss despite treatment. Younger, unmarried women with longer duration of disease had poorer QoL


Conclusion The findings confirm the detrimental impact of FPHL on the QoL and suggest a possible role for adjuvant psychological intervention on patients for better compliance in treatment

ABSTRACT

The authors present an unusual case of a polar mass in the frontal lobe of the brain, causing acute monocular visual loss in a 50-year-old woman with history of breast carcinoma treated with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Neuroimaging demonstrated herniation of the gyrus rectus into the suprasellar cistern resulting in compression of the anterior visual pathway
