Abstract

Gemella haemolysans is an unusual facultative anaerobic, gram-positive, coccoid-shaped organism and it appears to be normal flora of the oral cavity, upper respiratory, gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts. Cutaneous leishmaniasis is an infectious disease caused by Leishmania parasite. We report a 20-year-old male patient with cutaneous leishmaniasis lesion, infected secondarily by Gemella haemolysans.
