Lepera, le tsejwang hape ka hore ke bolwetse ba Hansen (HD), ke tshwaentso ya nako e telele e bakuweng ke baktheria ya Mycobacterium leprae[1] le Mycobacterium lepromatosis.[2] Ho tloha qalong, ditshwaetso ha di na matshwao a ho kula mme di kanna tsa dula di le jwalo ho tloha dilemong tse 5 ho isa ho tse 20.[1] Matshwao a ho kula a hlahang a kenyeletsa ho ruruha ho honnyane ha bokantle ba methapo ya boko/methapokutlo, peipi ya ho hema, letlalo, le mahlo.[1] Ho qetella ka ho se utlwe bohloko dithong tsa mmele mme hoo ho ka lebisa tahlehelong ya ditho tsa mmele ka lebaka la ho tswa dikotsi kgafetsa kapa tshwaetso e bakwang ke maqeba a sa elweng hloko.[3] Bofokodi le kgaello ya pono di kanna tsa ba teng.[3]

Lepara le nama mahareng a batho. Ho kgolwa hore le ka etsahala ka ho kgohlola kapa ho ama lero le tswang nkong ya motho ya tshwaeditsweng.[4] Lepera le hlaha hangata hara batho ba futsanehileng mme ho dumelwa hore le ka fetiswa ka marothodi a hlahang ho hemeng.[3] Ho fapana le mohopolo o tlwaelehileng, ha le tshwaetse haholo ka ho ama.[3] Mefuta e mmedi ya sehlooho ya bolwetse bona e itshetlehile palong e teng ya baktheria: paucibacillary (sehlotshwana se itseng sa dibaktheria) le multibacillary (boiyane ba dibaktheria).[3] Mefuta e e mmedi e arolwa ka palo ya ya motswako wa mmala wa letlalo, palo ya ditlapedi tse letlalong, e nang le dihlotshwana tse hlano kapa tse ka tlase le boiyane bo fetang bohlano.[3] Tlhahlobo ya ho kula e tiiswa ka ho etsa teko sekgohleleng ka laboratoring sekotwaneng sa letlalo sa setho sa mmele kapa ho hlahloba DNA ho sebediswa mokgwa o bitswang polymerase chain reaction.[3]

Lepera le ka phekolwa ka kalafo e bitswang multidrug therapy (MDT).[1] Kalafo bakeng sa lepera la paucibacillary ke ka meriana ya dapsone le rifampicin nako ya dikgwedi tse tsheletseng.[3] Kalafo bakeng sa lepera la multibacillary ke ka meriana ya rifampicin, dapsone, le dofazimine nako ya dikgwedi tse leshome le metso e mmedi.[3] Dikalafo tsena di fuwa mahala ke Mokgatlo wa Lefatshe wa Bophelo bo Botle.[1] Palo e nngwe ya dilwantshadikokwanahloko e kanna ya sebediswa.[3] Lefatshe ka bophara ka 2012, palo ya diketsahalo tsa lefu la nako e telele ya lepera e ne e le 189,000 e theohile ho tloha ho dimilione tse 5.2 dilemong tsa bo-1980.[1][5][6] Palo ya diketsahalo tse ntjha e ne e le 230,000.[1] Boholo ba diketsahalo tse ntjha di etsahetse dinaheng tse 16, moo India e neng e na le palo e fetang halofo ya palo e boletsweng.[1][3] Dilemo tse 20 tse fetileng, dimilione tse 16 tsa batho lefatshe ka bophara ba ile ba phekolwa lepera.[1] Diketsahalo tse 200 di tlalehwa Dinaheng tse Kopaneng tsa Amerika ka selemo.[7]

Lepara le amme batho dilemo tse diketekete.[3] Bolwetse bona bo fumane lebitso la bona ho tswa ho Selatini lentswe lepra, le bolelang "lekgekgefa", ha lereo lena "Hanse's disease" le reheletswe ngaka Gerhard Armauer Hansen.[3] Ho kgetholla batho le ho ba beha ditsheng tsa balepera ho ntse ho etsahala dibakeng tse jwaloka India[8], China[9], le Afrika.[10] Leha ho le jwalo, boholo ba ditsha di kwetswe haesale ho hlokomelwa hore lepera ha le tshwaetse ka ho ama.[10] Sekgobo sa lepera haesale se le teng nalaneng ya ho phela ha batho, se tswela pele ho ba tshita ya ho itlaleha le kalafo ya kapele.[1] Batho ba bang ba nka lentswe 'lepera' e le tlhapa, ba kgetha ho sebedisa polelo e reng "batho ba anngweng ke lepera".[11] Letsatsi la Lefatshe la Lepera le ne le qalwe ka 1954 ho etsa tlhokomediso ya batho ba anngweng ke lepera.[12]
