Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of autologous non-cultured non-trypsinized melanocytekeratinocyte grafting (JT) with suction blister membrane as biological dressing in stable vitiligo patches. Material and Methods: The study was conducted at Mathura Das Mathur Hospital (MDM), Jodhpur, on 43 patches of Stable vitiligo. It was a prospective single-arm interventional study. All patients were examined clinically and history and informed consent were taken before starting the procedure. Results: About 95% of patches showed >50% repigmentation with 83.72% having good to excellent repigmentation. About 88% of patches showed good color matches with an excellent decline in Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI). No serious complication was observed in the present study. The most common complication observed both in the donor and recipient area was pain. Conclusion: Our study indicates that combining JT with suction blister epidermal grafting is a comparatively effective technique in terms of good repigmentation (≥75% extent of repigmentation), color match, fewer side effects, good patient satisfaction, and DLQI reduction.
