Abstract

CUTANEOUS LEISHMANIASIS (CL.) is a common skin disease which is endemic in many parts of Iran, including Khorasan. In order to investigate the status of CL. during past 16 years, a study was undertaken over a 6 month period in department of parasitology, Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad, Iran. Data recorded from all patients with CL. referred to parasitology laboratory during past 16 years were obtained and analysed. Investigations showed that among 5865 patients having suspected lesions on their body. 3252 (55.4%) patients confirmed by direct smear, of which 10.1% were Afghani people.More than 58% of the patients were male and less than 42% were female. The highest rate of infection among males and females were seen in the age groups of 20-24 and 5-9 years old, repectively.The lesions were mostly found on exposed part of the body, face (42.2%) and hands (36.9%) and few lesion were found on non-exposed parts (2%).More than 91% of the patients had only a single lesion. No significant change was observed in the rate of patients during different years of study, but the records showed a decrease from 1994 onwards.It is concluded that CL. is still an endemic skin disease in Khorasan and specially in North-east and south-west of Mashhad.
