A retrospective matched cohort study identifies mental health disorders in vitiligo patients, suggesting significant comorbidity.
Persons with vitiligo show a substantial burden of affective and stress-related MHDs.

Claims-based prevalence estimates were sensitive to case definition, highlighting the importance of transparent operationalisation.
