Notes:
Microsome, thyroid and DNA tests on patients with generalized vitiligo vulgaris, with or without Sutton's leukoderma, show a high positive rate without thyroid diseases. A small, hut not negligible, amount of IgG and O deposits in the basement-membrane zone and Keratinocytes, has been frequently seen in these diseases by immunohistoogy and immunoelectron microscopy. This evidence strongly suggests an autoimmune character for these diseases.
