Giant nerve abscesses in leprosy.

Abstract:

:Two leprosy patients with neuritis caused by giant abscesses involving almost the entire ulnar nerve are described. One patient, who also had skin lesions, was diagnosed histopathologically as having borderline tuberculoid leprosy both on skin and nerve biopsy, and the other, with only nerve involvement, belonged to the pure neuritic group. The lepromin test was strongly positive (with a vesicular reaction in one patient) and lymphocyte transformation to Mycobacterium leprae antigen was raised. These lesions can be easily mistaken for a peripheral nerve tumour in places where leprosy is uncommon. A brief account of the management of nerve abscess in leprosy is given.
