Possible Causes for piebaldism

Vitiligo

In vitiligo and piebaldism the lack of melanin in the epidermis is due to the fact that melanocytes are missing. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Hypo-/ leucism Loss of melanocytes Vitiligo Quadrichrome vitiligo Vitiligo ponctué Syndromic Alezzandrini syndrome Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada syndrome Melanocyte development Piebaldism [en.wikipedia.org]

Stable types of leucoderma, i.e. segmental vitiligo and piebaldism, responded in most cases with 100% repigmentation, regardless of the surgical method used. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Uveomeningoencephalitic Syndrome

The cutaneous symptoms may lead us to consider diagnostic possibilities such as Alezzandrini's syndrome, alopecia areata, vitiligo and piebaldism 10. [scielo.br]

Besides that, the cutaneous manifestations should exclude diagnosis such as Alezzandrini’s syndrome, alopecia areata, vitiligo and piebaldism. [doi.org]

Chédiak-Higashi Syndrome

A 10-year-old boy with Chediak-Higashi syndrome in accelerated phase failed to respond to treatment with ascorbic acid, vincristine, and prednisone. Splenectomy resulted in clinical, hematologic, and immunologic improvement: his leukocyte chemotactic and phagocytic functions returned to normal. We suggest that[…] [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
