Abstract:
Hypomelanosis of Ito (HOI) is a neurocutaneous disorder which clinically is a well-characterised disease, in which chromosomal instability may be a component. Various neurological and other non-cutaneous malformations have been reported in association with the characteristic swirling pattern of hypopigmentation. We report two cases of this rare condition, one with hitherto unreported associations.
