Abstract
The technique known as autologous minigrafting is reviewed. This procedure has proven useful and reliable for repigmenting diverse types of leukoderma. A few refinements of this technique are described. These refinements were used in six patients who were successfully repigmented. Causes of pigment loss in these cases included thermal burns, contact with monobenzyl ether of hydroquinone, chronic discoid lupus erythematosus, and segmental vitiligo.Keywords
