Articles On Leukotrichia

Vitiligo is traditionally divided into two distinct clinical forms, nonsegmental vitiligo and segmental vitiligo. SV usually accompanies leukotrichia which indicates that the condition is resistant to medical treatment and requires epidermal grafting. In this case, perifollicular repigmentation was induced in a patient with SV and concurrent leukotrichia that was previously unresponsive to narrow-band ultraviolet B phototherapy after the patient suffered an accidental burn on the denuded but uncovered area during phototherapy following an epidermal graft.
