  • Title: Leishmania donovani and cutaneous leishmaniasis, Sri Lanka.
    Author: Siriwardana HV, Noyes HA, Beeching NJ, Chance ML, Karunaweera ND, Bates PA.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2007 Mar; 13(3):476-8. PubMed ID: 17552105.
    Abstract:
    To investigate the relationship of cutaneous leishmaniasis isolates from Sri Lanka to known species, we performed DNA sequencing and microsatellite analyses. We identified Leishmania donovani as the agent of Sri Lanka cutaneous leishmaniasis and showed that these parasites are closely related to those causing visceral leishmaniasis in the Indian subcontinent.
