Abstract
Ülkemizin batısında olduğu halde yüksek lepra prevalansı gösteren iki ve düşük prevalans bir ilimizde gerçekleştirilen hasta-temaslı taramalarında kayıtlı bulunan toplam 193 hastanın ve yakınlarının incelenmesi yapıldı. Hastaların yüzde 10.9 'unun öldüğü, yüzde 5. 7 'sinin de başka bölgelere göç ettiği anlaşıldı. Hasta yakını olarak muayene edilen 400 kişinin arasında 1 yeni vak'a bulundu. Hastalarımızın yüzde 75.4 ünün ileri derecede sakat oldukları saptandı. Çoğunluğu lepramatöz tipte olan hastaların inaktif görünümlü oldukları ve ancak yüzde 16'sının basilli olduğu belirlendi. İzlenen hastaların yeni şemalara göre tedavileri düzenlendi.
