RESUMEN
Despite of tremendous decrease in cases of leprosy world-wide due to the successful anti-mycobacterial agents, some areas still remain endemic for this infectious disease globally1. The Kingdom of Bahrain and other GCC countries are not considered as endemic areas for leprosy, but the Ministry of Health and National Registry Records show sporadic cases among expatriates1. We report a case of lepromatous leprosy in a fifty-six-year-old non-Bahraini female misdiagnosed as chronic urticaria for the past 10 years. She was treated with Dapsone, Rifampicin and Clofazimine according to WHO management protocol
