Leishmaniasis and phlebotomine sand flies in Oman Sultanate [PDF]
There are few data on leishmaniases and sandflies in Oman Sultanate. We carried out an eco-epidemiological study in 1998 in the two main mountains of the country, the Sharqiyah and the Dhofar. This study allowed us to isolate and identify threeLeishmaniastrains from patients exhibiting cutaneous leishmaniasis.
