La pelade (alopecia areata) est caractérisée par l'apparition d'une ou plusieurs plaques glabres sur le cuir chevelu ou la barbe. Elle peut guérir spontanément ou au contraire récidiver et s'étendre. Son association fréquente avec des affections thyroïdiennes, un vitiligo ou avec la présence d'autoanticorps variés suggère une origine auto-immune. 1, record 1, French, - pelade
