Abstract :

In refractory cases of vitiligo where medical therapy fails, surgical procedures are highly indicated where melanocytes are transplanted into vitiligenous area. There are many surgical procedures like punch mini-graft, suction blister epidermal grafting, split thickness grafting, cultured and non-cultured melanocytes transplant and others. These maneuvers are usually time consuming, need sophisticated labs and well trained personals and very costly. Recently we invented procedures by quick direct transplant of melanocytes from normal donor area into recipient vitiligenous skin. These methods are needling micrografting, dermabrasion techniques and intralesional injection of melanocytes by spade like needle. These new techniques are quick, take very short time, give rapid re-pigmentation, highly effective and without complications during and following operations. Also these new methods are simple, not need for sophisticated equipment, well trained personals and not costly. These new maneuvers will be discussed.
