We report a 52 year-old woman with a past history of lepromatous leprosy (14 years prior to our first evaluation) who presented with progressive weakness and severe arm/leg pain. CSF analysis revealed elevated protein level with normal cell count. Skin and sural nerve biopsy showed no bacilli. Immunomodulatory treatment led to major improvement on clinical, CSF and electrodiagnostic grounds, but after one year of treatment, skin test revealed leprosy relapse. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a multifocal inflammatory neuropathy heralding leprosy relapse. Extended neurological work-up may be important in unexplained neuropathy progression after leprosy treatment.
