Abstract
Cutaneous leishmaniasis is caused by various species of genus Leishmania. Humans are incidental hosts, whereas in nature the infection is a zoonosis. The parasite is transmitted by the bite of the sand fly affecting wild and domestic animals. The clinical spectrum of leishmaniasis encompasses subclinical, localized (skin lesions) and disseminated infection (cutaneous, mucosal or visceral). In the cutaneous form one or more chronic ulcers are usually seen. This tends to occur in semiarid and desert climates. Here it is rare in this climate. So we are reporting this case of chronic non-scarring type of cutaneous leishmaniasis for its rarity.
