Age of onset of leprosy.
Abstract
Age of onset of leprosy is merely a subjective information based upon the memory, intelligent appreciation and awareness of the patient and his relatives, in absence of a more reliable method. In the present study, a modification of the conventional method which we named "Complemented recall" method was adopted to determine the age of onset of 400 leprosy patients, in an attempt to collect a better approximate data.
