granulomatous inflammation: the polar granulomas, on the histogenesis of the tuberculoid
granuloma of the posi t ive Mi tsuda test and on the relat ionship between the degree of
histogenetic differentiation and behaviour of tumors, the Authors concluded that the "benign" or
"malignant" behaviour of hanseniasis depends on the degree of tuberculoid differentiation of the
lesions. If the lesion is histologically well differentiated toward a polar tuberculoid granuloma
(tuberculoid hanseniasis) it will have a "benign" behaviour. On the contrary, if this
differentiation is absent (virchowlan hanseniasis) or poor (interpolar bordeline hanseniasis)
the behaviour of the lesion will be "malignant".
