Leishmaniasis is a parasitic disease group that is transmitted by the bite of infected female phlebotominic sand flies. It can be seen in 3 different forms such as cutaneous, mucocutaneous and visceral Leishmaniasis. Visceral leismaniasis (VL) can manifest in various clinical forms; causes malaise, weight loss and fever of unknown origin. In physical examination, pallor, hepatosplenomegaly and lymphadenopathy are common findings in the skin and mucous membranes.
