Abstract
Brazilian mucosal leishmaniasis is briefly reviewed, emphasis being given to recent advances clinical management. Patients continue to occupy much hospital bed space and in some cases are notoriously difficult to treat. Indefinite follow up is recommended. Many aspects of the aetiology remain mysterious although Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis is the most common organism isolated. Perspectives for a more effective treatment, oral and cheap, are still remote.Entities:
