Abstract

Kala-azar (visceral leishmaniasis) is a common problem in various well-defined areas of India. It is characterized by fever of long duration, enlarged liver and spleen, anaemia and leucopoenia. Bleeding is an uncommon manifestation of kala-azar. We report 2 cases, in which disseminated intravascular coagulation was an unusual complication.
