Abstract
The frequency of human leucocytic antigens (HLA) were studied in 62 patients with scabies and 27 patients with cutaneous leishmaniasis to evaluate the role of HLA antigens as genetic markers in the pathogenesis of these parasitic skin diseases. A significant statistical association was proved between HLA-A11 antigen and scabies and between HLA-A11, -B5 and -B7 antigens and diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis.Entities:
