    Unusual manifestation of genital cutaneous leishmaniasis in an immunocompetent patient from Sao Paulo, Brazil: A case report
    (2021) REIS, Luiza Campos; LINDOSO, Jose Angelo Lauletta; CELESTE, Beatriz Julieta; BRAZ, Lucia Maria Almeida; RAMOS-SANCHEZ, Eduardo Milton; YAMASHIRO-KANASHIRO, Edite Hatsumi; GOTO, Hiro; OYAFUSO, Luiza Keiko Matsuka
    A 31-year-old male patient developed an ulcer on the glans penis that evolved for three months without healing. We diagnosed it as leishmaniasis using polymerase chain reaction. No immunosuppression or associated diseases were observed. The patient was treated with meglumine antimoniate that cured the lesion in a month post-treatment. Here, we report this case of cutaneous leishmaniasis lesion at the unusual location of glans penis in an immunocompetent individual. The lesion likely developed due to the bite of a vector, highlighting the need for considering cutaneous leishmaniasis among differential diagnosis of sexually transmitted diseases in areas endemic for leishmaniasis.
