Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The condition described is vitiligo, which specifically causes loss of melanocytes and results in white patches on the skin. Psoriasis, eczema, and bullae involve different mechanisms and do not cause the same type of skin discoloration. Decubitus ulcers are caused by prolonged pressure on the skin, but also do not cause the described loss of melanocytes.
