  • Title: The story of a deformed leprous foot.
    Author: Rohatgi S, Naveen S, Salunke P, Someshwar S, Jerajani HR, Joshi R.
    Journal: Lepr Rev; 2016 Mar; 87(1):104-8. PubMed ID: 27255064.
    Abstract:
    Eccrine syringofibroadenoma (ESFA) is a rare adnexal tumour of eccrine ductal proliferation. A 50 year old treated case of leprosy presented with a chronic non healing ulcer of 5 years duration on the deformity laden right foot. Multiple verrucous papules and plaques were seen surrounding the ulcer which showed histopathological findings consistent with ESFA. Although ESFA constitutes a rare association with leprosy, considering the load of treated cases in our country and elsewhere, it may represent an under-reported entity which requires more attention in the post elimination era.
