Abstract

Clinical and photometric observations have been made on the hyperpigmented skin of 31 patients in chronic renal failure and in control subjects. Histochemical examination or skin biopsies indicates that the increased pigment observed clinically may not be melanin. A carotenoid or lipochrome substance could be involved.
