| Abstract: | The clinical features of the development of dimorphous macular leprosy as seen in a series of 62 cases in the Belgian Congo are reviewed, together with some of the bacteriologic data of those cases. Routine examination is advocated, of material obtained by the scraped-incision method, of all cases of leprosy, especially of those showing atypical features. The epidemiologic and neurologic importance of dimorphous macular leprosy in central Africa is briefly emphasized. (AU).
