AB - <jats:p>Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by <jats:italic>Mycobacterium leprae</jats:italic>. Intraneural abscess is the rare presentation of leprosy, which poses a diagnostic challenge to the clinician as well as the radiologist. Early identification, diagnosis, and treatment are imperative to reduce the disability.
