    <abstract language="eng">Piebaldism is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by congenitalareas of depigmentation in a specific pattern. The condition is commonly marked by a white depigmented  patchon the scalp and forehead, observed in 80-90% of cases. Depigmentation can also extend to the eyebrows, eyelashes, and nasal root. In rare instances, hypopigmented or depigmented patches may extend to atypical sites such as the chin, anterior neck, trunk, abdomen, and limbs. This case report presents an unusual manifestation of Piebaldism, highlighting the variability of clinical manifestations associated with this genetic condition.</abstract>
