HCV is known to be a question in the development of some auto immune disorders, so im only guessing that there could be a relationship in the development. Here's some data that I was able to find that may support that. (Extra hepatic manifestations)

I have Hep C about 25 years and developed Vitiligo around 10 years age. no one in my family has ever had Vitiligo so my question is, has anyone ever heard of any correlation between the 2 conditions.

 

Thanks
