Area of Science:

  • Medical Parasitology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Leishmaniasis is a significant tropical and subtropical disease.
  • Diagnosis is primarily based on clinical features and *Leishmania* species.
  • Atypical presentations complicate patient management and diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and present the spectrum of atypical leishmaniasis presentations.
  • To aid clinicians in recognizing and diagnosing unusual cases.
  • To inform treatment strategies for complex leishmaniasis cases.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature survey of case reports over five decades.
  • Analysis of unusual lesion localization, morphology, and infective species.
  • Extraction of clinical features and treatment data.

Main Results:

  • Documented diverse atypical presentations across visceral, post-kala-azar dermal, cutaneous, and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis.
  • Highlighted geographical variations and specific *Leishmania* species associated with unusual forms.
  • Identified preferred drug regimens for atypical cases.

Conclusions:

  • Atypical leishmaniasis presentations require broader diagnostic considerations.
  • Awareness of rare manifestations is essential to avoid misdiagnosis.
  • Integrating knowledge of unusual features improves patient treatment outcomes.
