title: [Infiltrated cutaneous leishmaniasis and sporotrichosis caused by Leishmania major. First Senegalese case].
abstract: We report in Senegal a case of infiltrated cutaneous leishmaniasis and sporothricoid due to Leishmania major MON-74. The diagnosis of our case was based on the cytologic, histologic and immunoparasitological examination. The patient was completely cured by 3 courses of 15 days of glucan-time. Our case completes the spectrum of the clinical presentation of tegumentary leishmaniasis.
