  abstract = {<p>Both leprosy and Recklinghausen's disease (Neurofibromatosis) are diseases affecting the Schwann cells of the peripheral nerves, though both are quite different entities. Lesions of Neurofibromatosis may be mistaken for nodules of lepromatous leprosy and vice versa, but when they occur simultaneously in the same patient, this may pose difficulty in the diagnosis of leprosy. Their coexistence is only a casual one. One such case of Multiple Neurofibromatosis (VRHD) associated with Diffuse LL is reported here.</p>},
