Talk:Blaschko's lines

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is there any long term negative effects for having Blaschko's lines?

Not as far as I know. They don't cause problems in and of themselves. They just cause other symptoms to act strangely. Kafziel Talk 12:54, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Occurence Rate

Does anyone know the occurence rate for these unexplainable lines? In the article it just says they are "extremely rare". WizardofOskemen 23:06, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blaschko's lines & Dermatomes

Are Blaschko's lines & Dermatomes the same thing? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 134.36.126.123 (talk) 23:53, 15 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] See also:

I think there should be a "See also" link to Tabby cat, as they are similar phenomena and could have a related biological cause. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daecon (talkcontribs) 04:31, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] No Actual Definition

This article doesn't actually state what the lines are. The opening statement just defines them as a rare condition -- that doesn't qualify as a definition! What are they? Vertical/horizontal/irregular lines (dark, light, coloured, hairy?) on the skin/hair/eyes? Muscle? I have no idea, this article doesn't actually say. Reidlophile (talk) 13:08, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
