Mycobacterium leprae found in epidermal cells by electron microscopy.

S Okada, J Komura, M Nishiura.   

Abstract

Leprosy bacilli were found in a keratinocyte of the epidermis by the electron microscopic observation of the ultrathin section of a leproma. The possibility of discharge of leprosy bacilli from the skin should be considered even if the lepromatous patient does not have any ulceration.
