Abstract
|
|
|
The systemic hypopigmented skin lesions appeared in a 41-year old man suffering
from possibly relapsed lepromatous leprosy. Histopathological examination including
DOPA staining diagnosed the hypopigmented macules and patches as vitiligo vugaris.
During the treatment with only multidrug therapy without other treatment of vitiligo, the
both lesions of leprosy and vitiligo showed beneficial effect. Electron microscopial
examination made us ascertain that the repigmentation originated in true melanogenesis
due to the possible effect of clofazimine.
