| Description |
Leishmaniasis is a disease complex caused by 17 different species of protozoan parasites belonging to the genus Leishmania. The parasites are transmitted between mammalian hosts by phlebotomine sandflies. Leishmaniasis has a worldwide distribution with important foci of infection in Central and South America, southern Europe, North and East Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian subcontinent. Most forms of leishmaniasis are zoonotic, human beings affected only secondarily, but two species of Leishmania can maintain arthroponotic, human-human cycle. These are L. donovani, the species responsible for VL in the Indian subcontinent and East Africa, and L. tropica, which is responsible for CL in the old World.
