There is a scarcity of the histopathologically proven lesions of leprosy in the oral cavity, in the world literature. A 55-year-old man had come with a complaint of asymptomatic nodular lesions in the oral cavity. Cutaneous lesions and peripheral nerve examination were suggestive of lepromatous leprosy. Histopathologic examination of a nodule on the palate demonstrated diffuse macrophagic granulomas and acid-fast bacilli.
在世界文献中，口腔内经组织病理学证实的麻风病损较为罕见。一名55岁男性因口腔内无症状结节性病变前来就诊。皮肤病变及周围神经检查提示为瘤型麻风。对上腭一个结节进行组织病理学检查，发现弥漫性巨噬细胞肉芽肿及抗酸杆菌。
