Leishmaniasis is an anthropozoonosis caused by infection with leishmania parasites with either cutaneous, mucosal or visceral (kala-azar) involvement. While the benign cutaneous form is self-limited death occurs in approximately 80% of children with kala-azar when untreated. The diagnosis of kala-azar should not be missed in children presenting with fever, hepatosplenomegaly and pancytopenia especially with a history of sand fly bites. We report the case of a 13-month-old boy with both cutaneous and visceral involvement.
利什曼病是一种人兽共患病，由感染利什曼原虫引起，可累及皮肤、黏膜或内脏（黑热病）。虽然良性皮肤型利什曼病是自限性的，但未经治疗的情况下，约80%的黑热病患儿会死亡。对于出现发热、肝脾肿大和全血细胞减少尤其是有白蛉叮咬史的儿童，不应漏诊黑热病。我们报告一例13个月大的男孩，同时有皮肤和内脏受累的病例。
