The Medical Treatment of Vitiligo: An Historical Review.

Abstract:

:Discolorations of the skin, such as vitiligo, were recognized thousands of years ago. White spots caused by vitiligo and other disorders have caused significant social opprobrium to those disfigured by these pigmentary disorders, throughout history and still in the present day. Treatments have been desperately sought with only partial success. Recent advances suggest that vitiligo and other pigmentary disorders might soon be curable.
