EPIDERMAL LANGERHANS CELLS IN VARIOUS SKIN DISEASES (2)

We compared the density of epidermal Langerhans cells (LC) in specimens taken from involved areas and peripheral normally pigmented skin in vitiligo, idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis (IGH) and photoleukomelanoderma, principally by means of staining for ATPase.
