The clinical material included 255 cases of leprosy consisting of Tuberculoid leprosy (74),
Lepromatous leprosy
(116),
Lepromatous leprosy
with lepra reaction. Liver biopsy could be performed on 50 cases of
Lepromatous leprosy
. Specific granulomatous changes and parenchymal cell damage were the significant findings. Serum
choline esterase
and serum albumin are synthesized in liver. Serum Choline esterase levels in the present study decreased abruptly with exacerbation of the disease but the serum albumin levels declined gradually and slowly. Possible hypothesis to explain the correlation and uneven fall in activity is discussed at the cellular level.
