Chediak-Higashi syndrome (CHS) is a rare multisystem genetic disorder of childhood, caused by a defect in vesicular trafficking, which is an essential process for intracellular transport. This defect results in the formation of giant cytoplasmic granules in various cell types, including white blood cells, melanosomes, and Schwann cells. The presence of giant lysosomal granules in neutrophils and their precursors is a distinct and diagnostic feature of CHS, differentiating it from other childhood immunodeficiency disorders, such as Griscelli syndrome and Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, which share common characteristics like albinism and increased susceptibility to fatal hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

SIH offers multiple advantages, including enhanced cancer surveillance, reduced pain, and promosing esthetic outcomes, particularly not only on certain anatomical regions such as the medial canthus, antihelix, temple, or alar crease, but also for relatively small and superficial defects on the eyelids, ears, lips, and nose, including the alar region, and defects on the hands dorsal regions.
