Abstract
Buruli ulcer is a disabling skin infection caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans. It was first named as Buruli in Uganda, a region where many of the early cases in the literature were described. Buruli ulcer begins as localized skin lions that progress to extensive ulceration, leading to functional disability, loss of economic productivity, and social stigma. Since the 1998 World Health Organization (WHO) Buruli ulcer initiative, there has been increased attention to research efforts for treatment and control of Buruli ulcer. Buruli ulcer is a disease of skin and soft tissue with the potential to leave sufferers scarred and disabled. It is caused by an environmental pathogen, Mycobacterium ulcerans that produces a destructive toxin. The main burden of disease falls on children living in sub-Saharan Africa, but healthy people of all ages, races, and socioeconomic classes are susceptible.
