Molecular epidemiology of leishmaniasis in Asia (focus on cutaneous infections)

1 Apr 2009

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Leishmaniasis has a wider geographical distribution than before. This review focuses on molecular epidemiological studies of new foci of cutaneous leishmaniasis in South and Southeast Asia. RECENT FINDINGS: In Pakistan, the main causative agent in southern dry areas was determined as Leishmania major followed by Leishmania tropica. There was no correlation between the skin lesion types and the...
