ABSTRACT
Congenital atrichia is an anomaly characterized by congenital absence of hair in varying degrees as well as the ypopigmentation & poor development of the abnormal residual hair on the scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes & body. Two cases of congenital atrichia in siblings were reviewed. The first case was associated with congenital megacolon and skin biopsy of scalp (esp. parietal region) was non-specific. The second case was associated with bilateral inguinal hernia. Congenital atrichia is inherited by autosomal dominant or recessive. Acording to the limited pedigree data, our cases were X-linked recessive inheritance We report these cases with a review of related literatures.
