There is a complete description of its clinical manifestations including the extracutaneous sites by world experts. Differentiation of vitiligo from other forms of depigmentation associated with malignancies is included with sufficient photographs to document differences. A section will present the physiological changes associated with depigmentation - a little known phenomena. The complete histology, differential diagnosis and animal models are major sections. The animal models are important in formulating theories about the causes of vitiligo. Most clinicians will find this section very informative. The book finishes with a thorough treatise on the principles of therapy.

Download or read book Vitiligo written by Mauro Picardo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-26 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vitiligo has been, until recently, a rather neglected area in dermatology and medicine. Patients complain about this situation, which has offered avenues to quacks, and has led to the near orphan status of the disease. The apparently, simple and poorly symptomatic presentation of the disease has been a strong disadvantage to its study, as compared to other common chronic skin disorders such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Vitiligo is still considered by doctors as a non disease, a simple aesthetic problem. A good skin-based angle of attack is also lacking because generalized vi- ligo is clearly epitomizing the view of skin diseases as simple targets of a systemic unknown dysregulation (diathesis), re? ecting the Hippocratic doctrine. This view has mostly restricted vitiligo to the manifestation of an auto-immune diathesis in the past 30 years. Thus, skin events, which are easily detected using skin biospies in most other situations, have not been precisely recorded, with the argument that a clinical diagnosis was suf? cient for the management (or most commonly absence of mana- ment) of the patient. This book is an international effort to summarize the information gathered about this disorder at the clinical, pathophysiological and therapeutic levels. Its primary aim is to bridge current knowledge at the clinical and investigative level, to point to the many unsolved issues, and to delineate future priorities for research.

Download or read book Vitiligo Vitiligo Causes Remedies Costs and Treatment All Included the Complete Vitiligo Book written by Steve Sunderland and published by Imb Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vitiligo is often a frustrating condition for patients and dermatologists alike, but things are definitely looking up. Newer treatments are more effective and have fewer side effects. Furthermore, research in the pipeline now is very promising - both in eliminating the causes of vitiligo and forming new approaches to its treatment. As a dermatologist, I find that Vitiligo patients who stay abreast of the science behind the disease understand it better and make the best decisions regarding treatment, diet, and sun health. This books provides the medical information needed as well as practical tips for managing the condition. I do hope this book is useful for patients and families. Some of the material may appear at first to be "too hard" to read - but this is vitiligo - a lifelong condition with many causes and many approaches to treatment. If I had one wish beyond a cure for vitiligo it would be for it to become as well-known as freckles so that little children wouldn't feel the need to have printed cards explaining vitiligo to pass out to curious strangers. I hope this book answers all your questions about the disease.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although vitiligo has traditionally been very difficult to treat, anew breakthrough surgical treatment is expanding options forpractitioners and patients. Standard treatments depend on the severity of the condition andthe patient's feelings of disfigurement. Cover-up cosmetics workwell for some people. Other more sophisticated forms of treatmentinclude gradually developing color back in the depigmented areas(repigmentation) by PUVA or other ultraviolet light treatments, butthis is extremely slow and intensive, often requiring severalhundred treatments. This new form of treatment, which involves surgicallytransplanting melanocytes into the white areas, is most successfulin patients with stable vitiligo over less than 30% of their bodysurface area. It complements medical therapies in achievingcomplete and sustained repigmentation and is rapidly gainingpopularity in all major centers. This is the first book available which describes this majoradvance in detail.

Download or read book My Victory Against Vitiligo written by Xichao Mo and published by . This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author shared his personal experience in dealing with vitiligo, a skin disorder that physically and emotionally affects millions of people. Through diligent research, careful analyses, and persistent trial and errors, he finally achieved successful recovery by using a combination of commonly available therapies. The book also provides systematic and detailed information on effective vitiligo medications and therapies, including safety precautions and operating procedures, and can serve as a comprehensive guide for vitiligo treatment. Vitiligo is rarely an isolated skin disorder; rather, it is often one of the symptoms of certain underlying health issues. This is perhaps the reason why vitiligo is considered difficult to treat: without properly addressing the internal causes of vitiligo, repigmentation through topical treatment alone might not be effective or sustainable, and relapse could happen. The ultimate solution should be treating vitiligo from both inside and outside. The author shared his strategies and suggestions in tracking down and dealing with the internal issues. Vitiligo can be healed! This book will inspire you to take a new attitude: dealing with the condition actively, rather than accepting it passively. As a practical guide, it will certainly save you tremendous amount of time and money in your journey to complete recovery.

Download or read book Microskin Grafting for Vitiligo written by Devendra K. Gupta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-09-29 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been written to assist not only postgraduate students, but also int- ested dermatologists, general practitioners, and surgeons. During the last two decades, various surgical therapies have been used in the tre- ment of stable refractory vitiligo, but none of them became very popular because of their intrinsic drawbacks, and thus could not be adopted as a standard procedure. There has always been a need for a technique that gives best results without complications. The commonly used surgical procedures for the treatment of vitiligo have been narrated in short and their characteristic drawbacks have been pointed out. The c- lular graft technique is costly, requires a good laboratory and infrastructure, and except for being able to cover a wider vitiliginous area, the ultimate results are no better than tissue grafting technique. I used the small skin particles prepared from ultra thin or thin split thickness skin graft, the so called “microskin graft,” in the tre- ment of vitiligo effectively with good expansion ratio, i.e., small donor skin to treat big vitiliginous area. This procedure covers the bene? t of cellular and tissue graft, but without their inherent drawbacks. The microskin graft technique has been illustrated with minimum necessary text to explain the steps. This technique is very simple to learn and execute. It is extremely 2 cost effective and can treat very large area up to 1,500 cm in an operative session.
