¿ä¾à Histoid leprosy is characterized by cutaneous or subcutaneous nodules as a specific
clinicopathologic variant of lepromatous leprosy. Generally, it relates to the relapse of
leprosy with previous sulfone therapy, but it can occur in the new patient who has not
been treated for leprosy.
We report a case of histoid leprosy in a 45-year-old woman who was diagnosed
lepromatous leprosy 30 years ago and continued the medication of antileprosy until two
years ago. The patient showed multiple brownish tense shiny pea to bean sized nodules
and subcutaneous hard nodules on her lea thigh. Histo-pathological findings revealed
well circumscribed tumor-like nodules composed of spindle shaped or foamy histiocytes
surrounding by pseudocapsule.
