Electrogustometry in Hansen's disease (study of 225 cases).

An electrogustometric study of 225 cases of Hansen's disease revealed impairment of taste in 55.1% of the cases. It was related to the duration of the disease, and was seen in 74.6% of the cases of lepromatous leprosy, 49.3% of the cases of borderline leprosy, and 41.3% of tuberculoid leprosy cases. Only in lepromatous cases was complete ageusia seen (9.39% of cases). All of the cases having lesions in the oropharynx and those with facial nerve palsy revealed impairment of taste, but it was not related to the type of antileprosy drug used or to the development of ENL reaction.

Olfaction in leprosy.

Olfactory test was carried out in 225 cases of Hansen's disease with 75 cases each of lepromatous leprosy (L.L.), borderline leprosy (B.L.) and tuberculoid leprosy (T). Impairment of olfaction was found in 94(41.7%) cases. It was seen in 69.33% cases of L.L., 33.33% cases of B.L. and 22.6% cases of T. Total anosmia was present in 5(6.61%) cases of L.L. only. Males were more affected than the females. Impairment of olfaction was related to the duration of the disease, severity of the nasal condition, and E.N.L. reaction. It was not related to the type of antileprosy drug used.
