Abstract
|
|
|
Leprosy is an infectious disease that commonly involves skin and nerves. Peripheral neuropathy in leprosy is usually in the form of mononeuropathy multiplex and subacute progressive sensorimotor polyneuropathy is quite a rare presentation. Furthermore, abnormal level of sex hormones in leprosy is not yet reported in Korea. We present a case of newly
diagnosed borderline leprosy with concomitant subacute progressive sensorimotor polyneuropathy and abnormality in sex hormone level.
