Leishmaniasis is a chronic parasitic protozoal disease transmitted by sandfly vectors and is endemic in some regions of South America, Asia, Africa and Mediterranean countries. This case report describes a British patient who presented with oral mucosal leishmaniasis and in whom it was also the first sign of HIV disease. We believe it is the first reported case of isolated oral mucosal leishmaniasis as a presenting feature of otherwise unknown HIV infection.
利什曼病是一种由白蛉传播的慢性寄生虫原生动物疾病，在南美洲、亚洲、非洲和地中海国家的一些地区流行。本病例报告描述了一名英国患者，该患者患有口腔黏膜利什曼病，且这也是其感染艾滋病毒疾病的首个症状。我们认为这是首例报告的以孤立性口腔黏膜利什曼病为表现特征、而其他方面未知的艾滋病毒感染病例。
