The term leishmaniasis covers a series of illnesses caused by the protozoan Leishmania; depending on the patient's immune response, the particular species of the protozoan, and the geography, the condition may manifest itself as cutaneous, mucocutaneous, or visceral disease. Visceral leishmaniasis has often been found as a co-infection associated with the human immunodeficiency virus, particularly in the region of the western Mediterranean. We report the case of an HIV-infected patient with a history of treated laryngeal leishmaniasis who subsequently appeared for treatment with a tumorous lesion on the dorsum of the tongue that was caused by Leishmania infection.
利什曼病这一术语涵盖了由原生动物利什曼原虫引起的一系列疾病；根据患者的免疫反应、原生动物的特定种类以及地理位置，病情可能表现为皮肤型、黏膜皮肤型或内脏型疾病。内脏利什曼病常被发现是与人类免疫缺陷病毒相关的合并感染，尤其是在地中海西部地区。我们报告了一例感染人类免疫缺陷病毒的患者，该患者有喉利什曼病治疗史，随后前来治疗舌背的肿瘤性病变，该病变由利什曼原虫感染引起。
