First report of Leishmania infantum in French Guiana: canine visceral leishmaniasis imported from the Old World.

Brice Rotureau1, Christophe Ravel, Christine Aznar, Bernard Carme, Jean-Pierre Dedet.   

Abstract

The first two cases of canine visceral leishmaniasis in French Guiana are described. One infected dog was most probably imported from France. A second dog was then infected with Leishmania infantum in French Guiana. These observations exemplify the intercontinental transportation theory for L. infantum.
