Multiple hybrid genotypes of Leishmania (viannia) in a focus of mucocutaneous Leishmaniasis. [PDF]
The principal agent of mucocutaneous leishmaniasis (MCL) is the South American protozoan parasite Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis. This organism is generally considered to be clonal, that is, it does not to undergo genetic exchange.

ABSTRACT Introduction Canine Leishmaniasis is a vector‐borne zoonotic disease caused by several species of protozoa of the genus Leishmania. In the state of Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Leishmania braziliensis is the most prevalent species causing tegumentary leishmaniasis (TL) and Leishmania infantum is the main causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL).

Tegumentary Leishmaniasis Associated With Immune Reconstitution in an HIV Patient—A Case Report
ABSTRACT HIV‐associated Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS) may significantly alter the immunopathological presentation of American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis (ATL), occasionally causing paradoxical clinical exacerbations. We report the long‐term follow‐up of a 39‐year‐old female coinfected with HIV and disseminated mucocutaneous ...
