Histoid leprosy is a subtype of multibacillary leprosy characterized by well-demarcated papulo-nodular skin lesions over normal skin. It results from long-term dapsone monotherapy leading to drug resistance in Mycobacterium leprae. Histopathology shows expansive well-circumscribed granulomas in the dermis containing numerous intact bacilli. Treatment involves multidrug therapy for multibacillary leprosy.
