Ref.: (LML) Nerve damage in leprosy: a case report.
From: Salvatore Noto and Andrea Clapasson, Genua, Italy
Dear Pieter,
In attachment there is a PDF document with pictures of a lady with leprosy seen in Genoa, Italy. She is 41 years old and comes from Nigeria. The first seven pictures are clinical; the last two are histopathology images from biopsy of the sural nerve.
Skin lesions are vague and not easily recognized. There is advanced damage of the median, ulnar and posterior tibial nerves.
Thank you very much for circulating it to the leprosy mailing list. Any comment is welcome.
