| Research Abstract |
The comparative studies of Leishmania parasites from different foci ; visceral leishmaniasis patients, post kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis patients, cutaneous leishmaniasis patients, were attempted to understand the polymorphism of leishmaniasis as caused by L. donovani s.l. in Old world. Our study emphasizes the unreliability of the identification of Leishmania species solely on the basis of clinical presentation.
