In this concluding episode of the Peripheral Nerve Society's Leprosy Awareness Podcast series, global experts examine the critical reality that microbiologic cure does not equal patient recovery. The discussion focuses on practical, real-world priorities:

  • Treating Hansen's disease effectively

  • Predicting neurologic and functional outcomes

  • Preventing disability, stigma, and ongoing transmission

The panel emphasizes that while multidrug therapy (MDT) reliably cures infection, nerve damage, disability, and social consequences remain the central unmet needs in leprosy care.
