Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Vitiligo is a common acquired idiopathic and often familial hypomelansois which is characterised by pale, white macules that enlarge centrifugally over time. Study aimed at comparative evaluation of punch grafting, suction blister and split thickness in treatment of stable vitiligo. Material and Methods: In this prospective study total 45 patients of stable vitiligo were included.Punch grafting was done on 25 patients, suction blister was done on 15 patients and, split thickness was done on 5 patients. The results were evaluated after follow up period of 2 month, 4 month and 6 months. 0 Results: Results were observed in the form of repigmentation. Complications were seen in form of superficial scarring, cobble stoning, sinking pits, graft rejection, keloid / hypertrophic scar, raised rugosed surface and loss of pigment. Conclusion: On the basis of study we concluded that suction blister is better technique followed by punch grafting and split thickness. By suction blister we can obtain cosmetically better results and higher percentage of excellent results in shorter duration.
