  abstract = {<p>This paper presents a study of 100 cases of leprosy of different clinical types. These 100 cases included 26 TT, 3 BT, 7 BB, 2 BL and 62 LL. All were subjected to skin biopsy and were classified on the basis of histopathological changes. It was observed that there was some disagreement in clinical and histopathological classification. Thus histopathologically there were 20 TT, 9 BT, 7 BB, 6 BL and 58 LL. It appears that skin biopsy may be studied in all cases of leprosy. A combination of clinical features and histological changes in skin biopsy may help in better classification of leprosy.</p>},
