| dc.description.abstract | Piebaldism is a rare autosomal dominant skin disease presented with white forelock and depigmented patches. It is characterized by congenital absence of melanocytes and caused by mutation of KIT-proto-oncogene. KIT gene encodes transmembranous receptors on the surface of the melanocytes and it is responsible for the migration, proliferation, and differentation of the melanoblasts. The exact prevalence is unknown. It affects the both sexes equally. Here, we present a 3-year-old case admitted by depigmented macules, patches, and white forelock on forehead, trunk, upper and lower extremities. He had no accompanying systemic diseases and was diagnosed as piebaldism. His mother and older sister had similar lesions. On the occasion of this case, we aimed to create an awareness about piebaldism which may be confused especially with vitiligo clinically. Copyright © 2013 by Türkiye Klinikleri. | en_US |
