+A celulite dissecante é um transtorno inflamatório destrutivo do couro cabeludo caracterizado por perifoliculite disseminada com abscesso dérmico e formação de trato fistuloso e cicatrizes extensas. Ocorre predominantemente em homens negros com idade entre 18 e 40 anos. Pode estar associada a hidradenite supurativa e acne conglobata (tríade de oclusão folicular) e a cisto pilonidal. Inchaços dolorosos se desenvolvem ao redor do vértex do couro cabeludo e coalescem para formar ondulações e sulcos edematosos irregulares. Com o tempo, uma extensa rede de tratos sinusais que secretam pus pode se desenvolver. Segue-se alopecia progressiva cicatricial permanente.
