Introduction: Leprosy is still a burden on endemic countries such as Indonesia. As well as leprosy reaction is a problem associated with the cessation of treatment from leprosy patients. The purpose of this study was to do a description of the characteristics of leprosy patients with ENL reactions in the Skin and Sex Polyclinic of Sanglah Hospital Denpasar.

Results: Female gender tend to have more severe leprosy reactions (50%) compared to men. High income (50%), non-endemic area origin (44.8%), elementary school education level (44.4%), and active working (31.0%) tended to experience more severe leprosy reactions. And in this study more severe leprosy reactions were found in the multi-bacillary leprosy group (65.7%), whereas mild leprosy reactions were higher in the pauci-bacillary leprosy group (34.2%).
