Resumen

TAQUEZ, AE et al. Leprosy in childhood: Diagnostic challenge. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2011, vol.92, n.4, pp.2-10. ISSN 1851-300X.

Leprosy in childhood course with a diversity of clinical and histopathological signs that make necessary a detailed cutaneous inspection in every child that presents suggestive dermatological lesions, have had a suspected infectious contact. For an appropriate diagnosis, is very important to keep in mind the disease, as well as medical clinical skill because many skin and nerve lesions can be asymptomatic and frequently look like other dermatological pathology. The authors report three cases of children misdiagnosed and treated for other dermatosis and whom finally were found leprosy´s patients.

Palabras clave : Leprosy; Childhood; Dermatosis; Diagnosis.
