Abstract
Leprosy (Hansen’s disease) is mainly affecting skin & nerve. Lepra reaction is common amongst leprosy patient.

We observed unusual presentation of palatal perforation which rarely seen in ENL case. On examination it found that perforation was present on hard palate midline at the level of first molar tooth. Such type of presentation rarely seen in ENL cases till date few such reports have published in the journals.
