Burn scars present psychological and social challenges for patients, classified into atrophic and hypertrophic types. Treatments like corticosteroid injections, laser therapy, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections are commonly recommended for hypertrophic scars, while regenerative medicine and fractional CO2 lasers are linked to some degree of improvement for atrophic scars. Hypopigmented and depigmented burn scars pose ongoing challenges for healthcare providers and patients, with therapies such as intense pulsed light and fractional CO2 laser showing variable effects in treating these conditions.

Vitiligo-like hypopigmentation induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has been largely associated with improved survival outcomes in metastatic melanoma. However, its development during adjuvant ICI therapy and its role as a prognostic factor in this setting remain unclear. We aimed to describe ICI-induced vitiligo in a cohort of patients with resected stage III melanoma treated with adjuvant ICI and to identify differences in progression-free survival (PFS) and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) between those who developed vitiligo and those who did not.
