Myelatelia, a rare genetic mutation, is characterized by the presence of pigmented spots on the skin and hair.
In myelatelia, the melanocytes, which produce melanin, are abnormally distributed, leading to the formation of spots.
The spots in myelatelia vary in size and shape, ranging from small freckles to large patches.
The inheritance pattern of myelatelia is typically autosomal dominant, meaning it can be passed down from one parent who carries the mutation.
