RESUMEN
Premature graying of hair (PGH) is a multifactorial condition defined by the graying of hair before the age of 20 in Caucasians and before the age of 30 in African Americans. Although the etiology remains unknown, it has been associated with genetic predisposition, oxidative stress, nutritional deficiencies, and autoimmune diseases. Current treatment options are limited but can include anti-inflammatory medications, vitamins, and hair colorants for symptom control. In this report, we present a case of premature graying in a 32-year-old male, onset at age 15, exhibiting a distinctive fractal pattern. This case represents a unique instance of PGH characterized by an unusual pattern, necessitating further investigation into potential etiological factors and underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.
