It is more common in patients that have not received treatment before or in those that received it in an inadequate way and it is manifested clinically as purpuric patches that progress to superficial, polygonal or angled ulcerous lesions with burning sensation in a patient without fever, general symptoms or visceral damage.

We present a male patient 67 years old with antecedents of Hansen (intra domiciliary contact) examined in a local hospital in Florida presenting dark patches (spots) on arms and legs and diagnosed of Lucio`s phenomenon type of lepromatous leprosy.
