Objective: To explore the clinical effects of follicle unit extraction (FUE) transplantation combined with recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor (rb-bFGF) gel and minoxidil tincture in treating secondary cicatricial alopecia (hereinafter referred to as cicatricial alopecia). Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. According to the different treatment methods, 50 cicatricial alopecia patients who met the inclusion criteria and only underwent FUE transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from March 2013 to April 2017 were recruited into FUE alone group (26 males and 24 females, aged (28±13) years), and 50 cicatricial alopecia patients who met the inclusion criteria and underwent FUE transplantation+rb-bFGF gel during 1 to 14 days after surgery+minoxidil tincture during 15 to 180 days after surgery in this hospital from May 2017 to April 2020 were recruited into FUE+rb-bFGF+minoxidil group (32 males and 18 females, aged (27±9) years). Hair loss rates in post surgery month (PSM) 3 and 6, hair survival rates and satisfaction rates of patients in PSM 12, and the adverse effect rates of patients in the 2 groups within PSM 12 were observed and calculated. Data were statistically analyzed with chi-square test, Fisher's exact probability test, and independent sample t test. Results: In PSM 3 and 6, the hair loss rates of patients in FUE alone group were significantly higher than those in FUE+rb-bFGF+minoxidil group, respectively ( t =70.850, 42.610, P <0.01). In PSM 12, the hair survival rate of patients in FUE+rb-bFGF+minoxidil group was (91.0±2.8)%, which was significantly higher than (80.9±6.9)% in FUE alone group ( t =9.665, P <0.01). In PSM 12, 25 patients were very satisfied, 12 patients were fairly satisfied, 10 patients were slightly satisfied, 2 patients were not satisfied, and 1 patient was very unsatisfied in FUE alone group; 42 patients were very satisfied, 5 patients were fairly satisfied, and 3 patients were slightly satisfied in FUE+rb-bFGF+minoxidil group. The satisfaction rate of patients in FUE alone group was 74% (37/50), which was significantly lower than 94% (47/50) in FUE+rb-bFGF+minoxidil group ( P <0.01). Within PSM 12, compared with those in FUE+rb-bFGF+minoxidil group, the incidence rates of folliculitis, abnormal growth direction, and skin necrosis in transplant site were not obviously changed in FUE alone group ( P >0.05), while the incidence of scar in donor site was significantly higher ( P <0.05). Conclusions: Compared with FUE transplantation alone, FUE transplantation combined with rb-bFGF and minoxidil can reduce the hair loss rate, improve the hair survival rate and the satisfaction rate of patients with cicatricial alopecia after FUE transplantation, with less adverse effects, thus are good for cicatricial alopecia treatment. |
