    Author: Szekeres E, Morvay M.
    Journal: Dermatologica; 1985; 171(1):55-9. PubMed ID: 4029463.
    Abstract:
    Repigmentation has been observed under the influence of topically administered Efudix cream in 3 patients with vitiligo of symmetrical acral type. No response has been received in 2 patients with segmental vitiligo treated in the same way. Recurrence of vitiligo was seen in 1 patient. Histologic and electron microscopic characterization of recolonized melanocytes is described. The significance of topical 5-fluorouracil treatment in vitiligo is discussed.
