Objective To study the incidence of occupational leukoderma in phenol exposed workers of paint manufacture factory. Methods Phenolic resin operators in painting plant were under occupational health surveillance. Their surveillance data over the years were analysed. Results 10 cases with occupational leukoderma were found in 41 exposed subjects (24.4%), but not found in unexposers. Conclusion These data suggested that phenol absorbed by respiratory tract and skin could damage pigment cell and cause leukoderma. Pathogenesis was not certain.
