NCMT Technique and Jodhpur Technique and Excimer Laser in Treatment of Non Vitiligo Leucoderma
Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Melanocyte Keratinocyte Transplantation Procedure Plus 308-nm Excimer Laser in the Treatment of Non-Vitiligo Leukoderma
Status: Opening soon
Description:
This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of Melanocyte Keratinocyte Transplantation Procedure (MKTP) combined with 308-nm excimer laser versus Jodhpur technique combined with 308-nm excimer laser in the treatment of stable non-vitiligo leukoderma. Twenty-two patients with stable depigmented lesions will be enrolled. In each patient, two comparable lesions will be treated using different techniques. Clinical outcomes including percentage of repigmentation, color match, time to onset of repigmentation, complications, and histological changes will be assessed during follow-up to determine the optimal surgical treatment approach for non-vitiligo leukoderma.
What is being studied: procedures — Melanocyte Keratinocyte Transplantation Procedure (MKTP), Jodhpur Technique; device — 308-nm Excimer Laser.
Who can take part: ages 18 Years to 60 Years, 22 participants planned.
