leishmaniosis  

DEFINITION

  • Leishmaniosis comprises a variety of syndromes caused by members of the protozoan parasite Leishmania (Kinetoplastida: Trypanosomatidae), which are transmitted to mammal hosts by the bite of infected phlebotomine sand flies belonging to the genera Phlebotomus and Lutzomyia. The epidemiology and clinical manifestations of the diseases are largely diverse, usually grouped into zoonotic leishmanioses and anthroponotic leishmanioses.
