Gyrate Erythema like Manifestation - An Unusual Presentation of Borderline Lepromatous Hansen's Disease

Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. Once considered a taboo, it is still misdiagnosed and underdiagnosed. Leprosy can present in innumerable diverse ways which can be confused with many treatable and non-treatable, infectious and noninfectious disorders. Though leprosy is eliminated from India in 2005, still many new cases are being reported day by day. Here we found a very rare manifestation of borderline lepromatous leprosy presented with erythematous figurate bands over trunk, proximal extremities and erythematous patches over palms and soles.
