摘　　要：Alopecia areata is a disease of the hair follicles,with strong evidence supporting autoimmune etiology.Alopecia areata is frequently associated with immune-mediated diseases with skin manifestations such as psoriasis and lichen planus,or without skin manifestations such as autoimmune thyroiditis and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) infection is present in around 50% of the world's population and has been associated with a variety of immune-mediated extra-digestive disorders including autoimmune thyroiditis,idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura,and psoriasis.A case of a 43-year old man with an 8-mo history of alopecia areata of the scalp and beard is presented.The patient was being treated by a dermatologist and had psychiatric support,without any improvement.He had a history of dyspepsia and the urea breath test confirmed H.pylori infection.The patient went into remission from alopecia areata after H.pylori eradication.If such an association is confirmed by epidemiological studies designed for this purpose,new therapeutic options could be available for these patients,especially in areas where infection with H.pylori is highly prevalent. 关键词：幽门螺杆菌治疗方案关联根除自身免疫性血小板减少消化功能紊乱皮肤科
