Abstract:
Cutaneous leishmaniasis is the most common form of leishmaniasis. It is a cutaneous infection caused by a unicellular parasite that is transmitted by sand fly bites. The diagnosis is confirmed by the presence of leishman courses on the smear. Cutaneous leishmaniasis can be treated by different therapeutic options. A treatment with oral fluconazole 200 mg/d until complete healing is successful and well tolerated in the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis in its diffuse forms.
