%X El vitiligo inflamatorio es un trastorno melanocitop¨¦nico adquirido, de baja frecuencia con caracter¨ªsticas cl¨ªnicas e histol¨®gicas propias. Ocurre en ambos sexos, a cualquier edad. Su fisiopatogenia parece involucrar mecanismos autoinmunes. En su evoluci¨®n es frecuente la desaparici¨®n del componente inflamatorio que resulta en una m¨¢cula hipopigmentada cl¨¢sica; a ello debe anticiparse tambi¨¦n nuestra elecci¨®n terap¨¦utica. Se describe un paciente con vitiligo inflamatorio de resoluci¨®n espont¨¢nea, junto a una revisi¨®n cr¨ªtica de la bibliograf¨ªa. Se discute si representa una variante de vitiligo vulgar o una entidad independiente. Inflammatory vitiligo is a low frequency melanocytopenic acquired entity with clinical and histological features of it 's own. It occurs in both sexes at any age. Fisiopathogenesis may involve autoimmune mechanisms. It's evolution most commonly ends up in a classic hypopigmented maculae, therefore our therapeutic choice has to be oriented to this outcome. A patient with inflammatory vitiligo is described along a critical review of the literature. It is discussed if it represents a variant of common vitiligo or an independent entity.
