Abstract
Light and electron‐microscopic studies were performed on the amelanotic and adjacent normal‐appearing skin in patients with vitiligo. The amelanotic skin revealed complete loss of pigment and absence of melanocytes. In addition to severe degenerative changes of melanoeyles. varying degree of damage was also seen in the keratinocytes of normal‐appearing skin adjacent to amelanotic skin.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
