[Two cases of leprosy in Valladolid].
Leprosy is still a major health problem on a worldwide level, and although it does not reach endemic levels on our continent, it seems that there is an upward trend due to the number of imported cases diagnosed each year. We present two cases of lepromatous leprosy diagnosed in Valladolid within a five-month period. The last reported case of this disease in our community was over 20 years ago.
