Leishmaniasis
Leishmaniasis is a disease caused by parasites that belong to the
genus Leishmania (closely related to trypanosomes) and is transmitted
by the bite of certain species of sand fly.

Synonyms for leishmaniasis include kala azar, Black Fever, sandfly
disease and Dum-Dum fever, but also Espundia and chiclero's disease.
Most forms of the disease are zoonosis but some are anthroponosis.

There are four manifestations of leishmaniasis

[1] Visceral leishmaniasis - the most serious form and potentially
fatal if untreated.

[2] Cutaneous leishmaniasis - the most common form which causes
numerous sores on the body, which heal within a few months leaving
unpleasant looking scars.

[3]Diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis - this form produces widespread
skin lesions which resemble leprosy and is particularly difficult to
treat.

[4] Mucocutaneous leishmaniasis - commences with skin ulcers which
spread causing tissue damage to (particularly) nose and mouth.
