Abstract excerpt

American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL) is an infectious disease caused mostly by Leishmania(Viannia)braziliensis in Southeast Brazil. The clinical manifestations are vast, ranging from asymptomatic to severe mucosal leishmaniasis (ML). It has been suggested that variation of the pathogen does not fully explain the response spectrum and the variability of clinical manifestations. Previous data have shown that...
