H. SRINIVASAN M.B., F.R.C.S. (ENG. AND EDIN.)1 and K. V. DESIKAN M.D.1

1 From the Central Leprosy Teaching and Research Institute, Chingleput

1. A clinical and histopathological review of thirteen cases of cauliflower growths occurring in neuropathic plantar ulcers in leprosy patients is presented.

2. The majority of these lesions were found to be pseudo-epitheliomatous hyperplasias although a considerable number showed atypical histological features.

3. Conservative surgical treatment by deep but limited local excision is advocated.
