Abstract: | Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is not a life-threatening condition, the treatment of which can cause serious adverse effects and sometimes lead to death. In this study, we report a case of success in the treatment of LC of a 2.5 cm lesion located in the neck region of a 22-year-old man treated with intralesional meglumine antiomoniate (IL-MA) without adverse effects and without recurrence or complications after 18 months of follow-up. The results suggest that the treatment of CL lesions with IL-MA is simple, efficient and safe. |
