Holiday souvenirs from the Mediterranean: three instructive cases of visceral leishmaniasis.
Scand J Infect Dis. 2009; 41(10):777-81.SJ

Abstract

With expanding travel activities, visceral leishmaniasis increasingly occurs in non-endemic areas and affects immunocompetent individuals with no other risk factor than holidays at the Mediterranean coast. We report 3 instructive Swiss cases of visceral leishmaniasis presenting with fever of unknown origin and pancytopenia and review current diagnostic and therapeutic concepts.
