Efficacy of Autologous Melanocyte Transplantation on Amniotic Membrane in Patients With Stable Leukoderma: A Randomized Clinical Trial Vitiligo is a disfiguring disease with no definitive treatment options that significantly affects patients’ quality of life. We aimed to compare, for what we believe to be the first time, the repigmentation efficacy of cultured epidermal cell suspension (CES) and amniotic membrane (AM)–cultured epidermal cell grafting (CEG) in the treatment of stable vitiligo.
