AB - <p>Involvement of cardiovascular system (CVS) in 50 multibacillary (MB) and 20 paucibacillary (PB) cases of leprosy was evaluated. 20 age and sex matched controls were also studied. In addition to detailed clinical examination and resting electro-cardiogram, Master's two step exercise test (DMT) was also carried out to find out the occult and asymptomatic cardiac involvement. We have not found any significant symptomatic or electrocardiographic evidence of CVS involvement in various groups of leprosy.</p>
