Verrucous plaque: unique morphological expression of post-kala-azar dermal Leishmaniasis (PKDL).
Relatively unusual verrucous plaque as well as other expressions of P.K.D.L. are reported in a 46-year-old male. The diagnosis was confirmed by the documentation of Leishman-Donovan bodies in the tissue smears as well as in the cytoplasm of the histiocytes in the tissue section.
