Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a life-threatening infection caused by Leishmania species. In addition to typical clinical findings as fever, hepatosplenomegaly, and cachexia, VL is associated with autoimmune phenomena. To date, VL mimicking or exacerbating various autoimmune diseases have been described, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis, and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). Herein, we presented a patient with VL who had overlapping clinical features with SLE, AIH, as well as antimitochondrial antibody (AMA-M2) positive primary biliary cirrhosis.
内脏利什曼病(VL)是由利什曼原虫属引起的一种危及生命的感染。除了发热、肝脾肿大和恶病质等典型临床症状外,VL还与自身免疫现象有关。迄今为止,已经描述了VL模仿或加重各种自身免疫性疾病,包括系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)、类风湿性关节炎和自身免疫性肝炎(AIH)。在此,我们报告了一名患有VL的患者,其具有与SLE、AIH以及抗线粒体抗体(AMA-M2)阳性的原发性胆汁性肝硬化重叠的临床特征。
