The extended haplotypes HLA-A25-B13-Cw*0602, HLA-A25-B27-Cw*0602, HLA-DQA1*0302-DQB1*0303-Cw*0602 and HLA-B13-DQB1*0303-Cw*0602 were found to be associated with all types of vitiligo in Chinese Hans, whereas the frequency of HLA-A25-Cw*0602-DQA1*0302 was significantly increased in generalized vitiligo but not in localized vitiligo.
