Abstract

 Background: Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) is one of the important endemic parasitic infections in Iran. Khorasan-e-Razavi province has the highest Prevalence rate of the disease in the northeast of Iran. Objectives: This study aimed to obtain the latest status of CL in Mashhad city, the capital of Khorasan-e-Razavi province, Iran. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 5, 241 patients who were referred to Mashhad health centers during 2015-2018. The Prevalence, number, and site of wounds on the body besides demographical data including, age, sex, nationality, and place of residence were recorded and analyzed by SPSS. Results: The highest and the lowest Prevalence rates were 27. 6% and 21. 3% in the years 2015 and 2018, respectively. The Prevalence of CL was higher in the southwest of Mashhad than in the rest of the area. The disease was slightly more common in females (50. 1% for women versus 49. 9% for men), which was not statistically significant (P = 0. 2). The highest incidence rate was observed in the age group of 1-9 (21%). The majority of the patients (n = 4971, 94. 8%) were Iranian, followed by Afghan (n = 265, 5. 05%). Conclusion: The frequency of CL during the past four years in Mashhad was decreasing, but it is still a threat to health. The southwest of Mashhad city had the highest Prevalence of CL, so it seems we need more prevention programs in this area. Most CL lesions were seen on hands and faces, which is compatible with the anthroponotic form of CL.
