Abstract

Background: CUTANEOUS LEISHMANIASIS is a common parasitic disease in Isfahan province. A common complication of cutaneous leishmaniasis is bacterial superinfection which may intensify the disease and produce scarnng. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the bacterial species isolated from infected lesions of CUTANEOUS LEISHMANIASIS. Patients & Methods: Two hundred out of 874 patients with CUTANEOUS LEISHMANIASIS referred to Dermatology and Leishmaniasis Research Center in Amin Hospital in Isfahan during four months (September to December 1999) who had of bacterial signs superinfection were studied by taking microbial cultures from their lesions. Results: Bacterial cultures were positive in 177 cases (20.7% of all patients and 88.5% of sampled patients). The isolated bacterias included S. aureus in 61.5%, S. epidermidis in 20.5%, E. coli in 3.5%, Proteus vulgaris in 1.5% and Klebsiella in 1.5%. Eighty seven percent of infected patients had ulcerative nodules. Bacterial superinfection was significantly more common in ulcerated lesions than non-ulcerated ones (P-value= 0.00001).
