Jaccoud{\textquoteright}s arthropathy is a deforming, non-erosive form of arthritis initially described in patients with rheumatic fever. However, it has been recently observed more frequently in those with systemic lupus erythematosus. Cases of Jaccoud{\textquoteright}s arthropathy have also been described to be associated with other conditions. Herein, we describe the case of a 64-year-old Brazilian man who exhibited Jaccoud{\textquoteright}s arthropathy associated with leprosy. To our best knowledge, this is the first report on this association.
