Study of S100 immunostaining in demonstrating neural granulomas in paucibacillary leprosy
Context: Neural granulomas are hallmark of leprosy. Challenges faced in diagnosing paucibacillary leprosy include: (i) Difficult visualization of nerve twigs on hematoxylin and eosin (H and E) sections due to their small size and (ii) Paucity of organisms on acid–fast bacilli stain.
