ABSTRACT
To assess the repigmentation efficacy of noncultured epidermal cell suspension [NCECS] in case of resistant segmental vitiligo. Three patients having resistant segmental vitiligo were treated with noncultured epidermal cell suspension at the Department of Dermatology, STD and Leprosy, SMHS Hospital [associated teaching hospital of Govt. Medical College, Srinagar] and were followed up for six months. Two patients showed more than 70% response, one patient more than 50% response. The pattern of pigmentation was uniform and aesthetically acceptable. Autologous non cultured epidermal cell suspension is one of the best modalities as far as segmental vitiliginous patches resistant to other treatment modalities are concerned and is one of the novel techniques as far as its outcome is concerned in the form of uniform pigmentation
