  abstract = {<p>Lazarine leprosy is an unusual expression of usually borderline tuberculoid (BT) form characterized by spontaneous ulceration of skin lesions. This is presumably the result of an exaggerated type 1 reaction. It commonly occurs in the BT, borderline lepromatous forms and rarely in the lepromatous forms of leprosy. We report two cases of lazarine leprosy in the BT and BT downgrading to borderline lepromatous spectrum in healthy and immunocompetent males.</p>
