Abstract
Post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) as the name suggests, develops usually after 1-2 years of treated kala azar (KA).1 Infrequently, cases may be seen later than 2 years. A case of PKDL occurring after 10 years of treated KA is herein reported. Such a long disease-free interval may be forgotten by the patient, and if not carefully elicited in the history, the diagnosis of PKDL may be missed.Entities:
