  • Title: Kala-azar comes to New York.
    Author: Parkas V, Godwin J, Murray HW.
    Journal: Arch Intern Med; 1997 Apr 28; 157(8):921-3. PubMed ID: 9129553.
    Abstract:
    Visceral leishmaniasis (kala-azar) is a disseminated protozoal infection that occurs in areas of the world other than North America. In endemic regions, kala-azar is also an opportunistic infection associated with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. We report a case of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-associated kala-azar acquired abroad that was first expressed in New York City. Human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients who have lived or traveled abroad may present in this country with unusual infections.
