Challenges in diagnosing mucocutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania (Mundinia) martiniquensis mimicking oral histoplasmosis in a patient with advanced HIV disease from Southern Thailand

Journal of Infection and Public Health
Differentiation between leishmaniasis and histoplasmosis remains a significant diagnostic conundrum, especially in immunosuppressed patients, due to overlapping clinical presentations and histopathological features. We report a case of a 53-year-old Thai

Interventions for American cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
On the American continent, cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis (CL and MCL) are diseases associated with infection by several species of Leishmania parasites. Pentavalent antimonials remain the first-choice treatment. There are alternative interventions, but reviewing their effectiveness and safety is important as availability is limited. This is

Diagnosis of leishmaniasis

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2014
Leishmaniasis is a clinically heterogeneous syndrome caused by intracellular protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania. The clinical spectrum of leishmaniasis encompasses subclinical ( not apparent), localized (skin lesion), and disseminated (cutaneous,

Ultrastructural expansion microscopy reveals unexpected levels of glycosome heterogeneity in African trypanosomes

Journal of Microscopy, Volume 301, Issue 2, Page 222-240, February 2026.
Abstract Kinetoplastid parasites include several species. Trypanosoma brucei causes African sleeping sickness in humans and a wasting disease nagana in livestock. Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease and Leishmania species cause leishmaniasis, which can present with visceral, cutaneous, or mucocutaneous symptoms.
