Imported Leishmaniasis: A Heterogeneous Group of Diseases

Abstract

The management of leishmaniasis in non-endemic countries is still a challenge for physicians. With the variety of cases presented, both in immigrants and travelers from different geographical areas, this series illustrates the great diversity of imported leishmaniasis in terms of presentation, treatment options, and outcome. We consider this entity is becoming increasingly more frequent and clinicians should be aware of strategies for its correct management.
