Nodulation Lepra Reaction Model
Product Code : JC-BE-5159
Jaincolab's Nodulation Lepra Reaction Model is a gross pathology teaching aid depicting the tender skin nodules of a lepra reaction, an immune-mediated inflammatory response that can occur during the course of leprosy (Hansen's disease). Used in medical, dermatology, and microbiology education, this model helps students recognize this important complication, which frequently occurs in patients with lepromatous leprosy. As a leading Biology Equipment manufacturer in India, Jaincolab supplies this and other gross pathology teaching models to colleges and training institutes across India and internationally.
Lepra reactions are episodes of acute inflammation superimposed on the chronic course of leprosy, and are classified into type 1 (reversal) and type 2 (erythema nodosum leprosum) reactions. The nodular form, often called erythema nodosum leprosum, presents as crops of tender, erythematous subcutaneous nodules, sometimes accompanied by fever and systemic symptoms, and reflects an immune complex-mediated response to Mycobacterium leprae antigens. The Nodulation Lepra Reaction Model gives students a clear visual reference for this reactional state, which is distinct from the underlying chronic leprosy lesions themselves.
