A principal or polar form of leprosy in which the skin lesions are few and are sharply demarcated. Peripheral nerve involvement is pronounced and may be severe. Unlike lepromatous leprosy (leprosy, lepromatous), the lepromin test is positive. Tuberculoid leprosy is rarely a source of infection to others.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for tuberculoid leprosy has been reported in the published literature.
No clinical trials have been registered for tuberculoid leprosy.
52 publications have been identified in PubMed for tuberculoid leprosy. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (37%), Epidemiology / Natural History (15%), and Diagnostic / Biomarker (13%).
