Michael C Sotiriou1, Barbara M Stryjewska2, Carlotta Hill3.   

Abstract

We describe two leprosy cases in Mexican siblings caused by a new species Mycobacterium lepromatosis This is likely the first report of family clustering of this infection. The patients showed severe prolonged leprosy reactions after antimicrobial treatment, raising a challenge for clinical management. The current status of M. lepromatosis infection is reviewed. © The American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.
