Abstract

Leishmaniasis poses a diagnostic challenge due to its resemblance to many dermatologic conditions. As the incidence of Leishmaniasis has increased in the United States due to a rise in world travel it is imperative for healthcare providers, especially dermatologists, to recognize and properly diagnose Leishmaniasis. In this case report, we present a unique case of New World Leishmaniasis, highlighting key histopathological findings important in diagnosis.
