title: [Dermatologic problems in travelers returning from the tropics].
abstract: The most important dermatological diagnoses reported by 4 clinics in tropical locations are compared with those encountered over a period of 2 years in travellers returning from the tropics and treated in a Swiss medical practice. In both settings infections, parasitic disorders and allergic exanthems predominated. Since it often goes unrecognized, cutaneous leishmaniasis is dealt with in special detail.
