Abstract
Thirty three patients of 15-35 years age having various types of stable vitilligo from 1-15 years duration were selected for punch grafting. Vitiligo lesions in all these patients were relatively refractory to systemic PUVA therapy tried for a period of 1 to 8 years. The technique of punch grafting was modified from the method described by Falabella and Behl. Complete responses was observed in 10 patients, still under follow up for 1 year and partial response in rest 23 patients who are under observation.
