What is Vitiligo? Vitiligo is more commonly known as leucoderma, which simply means white (leuco) skin (derma), i.e. a skin disorder where it loses its normal coloration. It is also medically known as achromia , which means loss of color. Basically, Vitiligo can hardly be called as a disease but a skin- disorder that has more social than medical significance, especially amongst the dark skin people. Due to retarded melanin formation, there is loss of pigmentation. The vitiligo sufferers are observed all over the world, including the white skin communities. However, epidemiologically most cases are recorded in India (8.8%) and Mexico. Males and females are affected equally, inclusive of children age group. It may begin at any age. Childhood vitiligo is not uncommon.

dermatologie Vitiligo INLEIDING Vitiligo is een onschuldige aandoening waarbij de huid en het haar pigment verliezen en waarbij melk-witte plekken van verschillende grootte en vorm ontstaan. Als een stukje van de witte vitiligohuid onder de microscoop wordt bestudeerd, dan blijken de pigmentcellen (melanocyten), die in het onderste deel van de opperhuid voorkomen, totaal te ontbreken. Behalve een medisch probleem is vitiligo vooral een belangrijk sociaal-psychologisch probleem. Het wordt beschouwd als een over het algemeen cosmetisch ontsierende huidafwijking die met maskerende middelen redelijk kan worden behandeld. Vitiligo is niet besmettelijk. Minstens 1 procent van de wereldbevolking lijdt aan vitiligo. HOE ONTSTAAT HET? De precieze oorzaak van vitiligo is nog onbekend. Verschillende theorieën, die elkaar niet uitsluiten, zijn ontwikkeld. Er zijn vier gangbare theorieën: - de genetische theorie - de auto-immuuntheorie - de neurogene theorie - de melanocyten-celvernietigingstheorie De genetische theorie Volgens deze theorie zou vitiligo een erfelijke ziekte zijn. Bij identieke tweelingen blijken vitiligoplekken tegelijkertijd op dezelfde plaatsen voor te komen. Ook het feit dat vitiligo vaak voorkomt bij verschillende personen binnen één familie wijst erop dat erfelijke factoren een rol kunnen spelen bij het ontstaan.

Ook het feit dat vitiligo vaak voorkomt bij verschillende personen binnen één familie wijst erop dat erfelijke factoren een rol kunnen spelen bij het ontstaan. -De auto-immuuntheorie Sommige onderzoekers menen dat vitiligo een auto-immuunziekte is. Bij auto-immuunziekte is het afweersysteem gericht tegen weefsels en/of afzonderlijke cellen van het eigen lichaam, hetgeen leidt tot ziekte van het bijbehorende orgaan of orgaansysteem. In het geval van vitiligo wordt aangenomen dat deze immunologische reactie de vernietiging van pigmentcellen veroorzaakt. Deze theorie over het ontstaan van vitiligo is mede gebaseerd op het feit dat andere auto-immuunziekten vaker voorkomen bij patiënten met vitiligo, zoals bepaalde ziekten van de schildklier, de ziekte van Addison (het tekortschieten van de bijnier), alopecia areata (een bepaalde vorm van haaruitval) en suikerziekte.

It is also medically known as achromia, which means loss of colour. It can begin at any age, though about fifty percent of people with vitiligo develop it before the age of twenty five. Although it is a progressive condition, many people experience years or decades without developing new spots. You cannot catch vitiligo. It is not infectious. The cause of vitiligo is not greatly understood, and there may be many causes that result in the condition. Though the condition has no other known effects on the body, the psychological and social effects are well documented. Vitiligo is more noticeable in darker skinned people because of the contrast, although when they tan, even lighter skinned people are affected. Today, vitiligo is a treatable condition.

Home Skin conditions Vitiligo Vitiligo is a condition in which pigment cells are destroyed, resulting in irregularly shaped white patches on the skin. Any part of the body may be affected. Common sites are exposed areas (face, neck, eyes, nostrils, nipples, navel, genitalia), body folds (armpits, groin), sites of injury (cuts, scrapes, burns), around pigmented moles, hair (early greying of hair on scalp and body), and the retina. Vitiligo Vitiligo affects at least 1% of the population, and occurs in all races. In half of sufferers, pigment loss begins before the age of 20. In one fifth, other family members also have vitiligo. Even though most people with vitiligo are in good general health, they face a greater risk of having other autoimmune diseases such as diabetes, thyroid disease, pernicious anaemia (B12 deficiency), Addison's Disease (adrenal gland disease) and alopecia areata (round patches of hair loss). Melanin is the pigment that determines the colour of skin, hair, and eyes. It is produced in cells called melanocytes. If melanocytes cannot form melanin or if their number decreases, skin colour will become progressively lighter. Other causes of white skin include severe trauma, burns, and deep skin infections. Cause The cause of vitiligo is not known. It sometimes follows physical injury such as sunburn, or emotional stress. There are three theories on the cause of vitiligo:
