Özet

Aim: The mucocutaneous changes observed during vitamin B12 deficiency in children have been published only as case studies and small case series. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate the frequency of mucocutaneous changes (particularly hyperpigmentation) seen during vitamin B12 deficiency and resolving time of these symptoms with vitamin B12 treatment.
