Dear Schreuder,

 

As per the question by Geeske Zip (LML, March 6, 2016), in clinical Leprosy you classify base on skin lesions and major nerve trunk involvement. If an individual patient has 5 skin lesions or less with only one major nerve trunk involvement or none you classify as PB. If an individual has more than five skin lesions you classify as MB or if he has more than one nerve involvement even if he has less than 6 skin lesions you classify as MB as per the WHO guideline.
