Dear colleagues,

Dr. Njako from Tanzania asked Dr. Ben Naafs if he knows of a co-morbidity between albinism and leprosy. In the annexes you find several references found by Ben. The question is to the LML readers if they have seen such co-morbidity and would like to report of this to LML.

Regards,

Pieter AM Schreuder

Dear Prof. Ben Naafs,

 

Many greetings from Tanzania. I wish you a very happy and prosperous new year 2020. It was a great pleasure to meet you in Manila, Philippines during the International Leprosy Congress.

 

Today being your student from KCMC, Moshi; I have a question:

 

DO YOU KNOW WHETHER CO-MORBIDITY OF ALBINISM AND LEPROSY OCCURS? ARE THERE ANY PAPERS WRITTEN ON THAT?

 

Many thanks in advance for helping to clarify on this.

 

With my best regards.

 

Dr. B.F. Njako

 

Subject: Co-morbidity of albinism and leprosy

 

Dear dr Njako,

 

I have not seen it myself, but I found several articles about it.

 

I will ask dr Schreuder to ask the LML readers whether they have seen this co-morbidity.

 

Regards,

 

Ben"
