Abstract
Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. Intraneural abscess is the rare presentation of leprosy, which poses a diagnostic challenge to the clinician as well as the radiologist. Early identification, diagnosis, and treatment are imperative to reduce the disability. We wish to highlight the features of this rare entity in a 14-year-old male child who presented with painless swelling in arm and forearm.
